HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) A woman who made a false 911 report that led to the botched Harding Street Raid in January 2019 has pleaded guilty to a charge of conveying false information.
According to the indictment, Patricia Ann Garcia called 911 and claimed her 25-year-old daughter was inside Rhogena Nicholas and Dennis Tuttle s home doing drugs, but federal prosecutors said none of it was true.
Three weeks after the report to police, narcotics officers executed a no-knock warrant on the home.
