A David Finn post on Boxing Day – December 26 – has people angry, but Dallas District Attorney John Creuzot sharing it has them ready to rumble on social media.
Finn is representing Philip Baldenegro in the criminal trial related to the robbery and murder of Carlos Arajeni-Arriaza Morillo. The case against co-defendant Zephi Trevino recently had Jamie Lee Curtis take out a full page ad in the Dallas Morning News.
Finn accuses Trevino of engineering the robbery despite her family protests she is a victim of sexual trafficking.
Finn’s post appears to be defending his client on the court steps as opposed to court chambers, but the real outrage came when DA Creuzot shared the David Finn post on his personal Facebook account page.
Texas code forbids prosecutors from speaking about cases against minors so how close this skirts this prohibition is yet to be determined. This case does appear to be tarnishing the Hollywood reputation of Creuzot who has won national ink for ‘prosecution reform’.
Creuzot also appears to have a battle on his hands with the local Democratic Socialists of America chapter.
Several members of the group or supporters attacked and questioned Creuzot. One went so far as to say his career was “over.”
Trevino is scheduled to have a certification hearing next week on January 4, 2021 to determine if she can stand trial as an adult.
