Judge Boyd Grants Deferred Adjudication in Sex Offender Registration Case | Texas Courtroom

In this Texas criminal court session, Judge Boyd presides over multiple serious matters, including a violation of sex offender registration requirements, a motion to revoke community supervision, and sentencing decisions involving jail time versus treatment.

In the primary case, the defendant pleads no contest to a third-degree felony failure to register as a sex offender. Judge Boyd conducts a detailed plea colloquy, explains the full punishment range of 2 to 10 years in prison, and ultimately grants five years of deferred adjudication with strict conditions. These include:

Mandatory Chapter 62 sex offender registration

Supervision by the sex offender probation unit

Proof of employment restrictions

Drug and alcohol testing

180 days in the Bexar County Jail as a condition of probation

Community service restitution and fines

The hearing also addresses a probation revocation case where the defendant admits to failing drug tests and non-compliance. Judge Boyd offers a clear choice between state treatment (ISF) and county jail, emphasizing accountability, substance abuse issues, and long-term consequences.
