Still Missing TX - Cecilia Huerta Gallegos, 30, mother of 4, San Antonio, 7 July 2019 *Arrest*

So @MsMarple - anything new on the court site yet? This is taking WAY too long. Maybe a plea deal in the works - hopefully!
I don’t know what the heck is going on, no change on the docket. Maybe a plea IS in the works.

that last one - Motion requesting mod (modification??) of GPS conditions - ?? wonder what that is about?

I clipped it a bit short. His attorney had previously requested a modification of Gallegos’ ankle bracelet which was denied. I bet the newer motion was to remove it during trial or something similar.

Whatever it was it hasn’t been ruled on yet. And I don’t know why the docket hasn’t been updated. Sigh, I guess we just keep checking.

Okay - I shall add that to my notes.
 
@MsMarple - any updates yet in the court site?

TIA! :)
No, and it’s left me scratching my head. The court site still lists a trial for 10/23, no updates.

Nothing I could find in msm either. A continuance was granted on 10/18. So… is there a plea deal in progress? Is a trial happening that msm is missing? Did I miss something in the news?

Frustrating.

Yes, very frustrating. I hate court sites that do no update & have no info on what is going on...

I shall try again next week sometime - and THANKS for trying to find something! :)
 
@MsMarple - when you have time can you see if there is another court date yet?

TIA! :)
Hey @Niner! I’ve been checking every other day and there’s no movement that I can find. Nothing in msm either. No clue of what’s happening, is the trial on hold? Is it happening? Ugh.

SAN ANTONIO - Imagine learning about a missing person's case directly from the person who's missing. That's the idea behind a new AI video making the rounds on social media narrated by a San Antonio mother who vanished nearly five years ago.

Using AI technology, the video shows Cecilia Huerta Gallegos describing the circumstances surrounding her own disappearance back in July of 2019.

****
*The video was made by the local non-profit Search & Support San Antonio with the full support of Cecilia's family, bringing her image to life in hopes of better grabbing the public's attention.

*****
San Antonio police are confident they know what happened to Cecilia and who did it. Her husband Reyes Gallegos is charged with her murder. Arrested in 2021, his trial is set to begin next week. But despite his arrest, Cecilia's body has still never been recovered.
