HAYS COUNTY
The first people to enter Hays County’s new Pre-Trial Diversion Program have successfully completed the program, according to Hays County Criminal District Attorney Kelly Higgins.
The program was launched in January and is designed to allow certain offenders to avoid the stigma and burden of a criminal record for low-level, non-violent offenses. Seven people have completed the program, and another seventy are currently working their way through it. If they successfully complete it, they will have the opportunity to avoid a criminal conviction.
