Bexar County District Attorney Joe D. Gonzales released a 32-page “midterm report” Tuesday on his first two years in office, giving himself high marks for reorganizing his 500-plus staff to pursue criminal justice reforms, creating new divisions and programs and revamping old ones.
He also touted his commitment to transparency, posting the report on his office’s web page and pointing to the availability of prosecution statistics updated regularly on online dashboards to show the community the work underway.
Despite COVID-19 putting many court proceedings on hold for more than a year, Gonzales said he has accomplished much of what he promised while campaigning in 2018.
