During a visit to the Travis County Commissioner's Court to speak on the ASAP program, a SWAT officer allegedly harassed and threatened a citizen with arrest. While local media and officials like Margaret Gomez claimed the SWAT team was present to receive an award, eyewitnesses and video footage suggest they were deployed specifically for intimidation. The incident is being reviewed by lawyers for potential obstruction of justice charges.
