District Attorney Garza issued the following statement:
"In the next several weeks, our office will present to a Travis County grand jury the facts surrounding the death of Garrett Foster and the grand jury will determine whether a criminal case should move forward. Coming to a decision in these kinds of cases can be particularly challenging, and we are grateful to the grand jury for their service and commitment to considering all evidence and law.
