RCT Wins Acquittal in Pro Bono Federal Bribery Case

On December 19, 2017, after a hard-fought, seven-day trial, RCT won an acquittal on all counts in a federal bribery case against Olga Hernandez, a former San Antonio ISD trustee. After learning the underlying facts of this case, RCT agreed to represent Ms. Hernandez on a pro bono basis. RCT’s trial team included Bill Reid and Brandon Lewis. This was the first criminal defense case that Mr. Reid, a former federal prosecutor, has undertaken since leaving the U.S. Attorney’s Office more than 17 years ago.
