SUMMARY: A North Texas mother, Crystal Canales, is in custody following the tragic death of her 19-year-old autistic daughter, Delilah Vias. First responders found Vias emaciated and covered in wounds after Canales called 911 on Valentine’s Day to report her daughter wasn’t breathing. Family members expressed regret for not intervening sooner, as Vias had been seen healthy in 2021. While the medical examiner has not confirmed the cause of death, Canales faces a charge of serious bodily injury to a disabled person. Police are investigating the circumstances surrounding Vias’s death, seeking clarity on the timeline and potential additional charges.

SUMMARY: Hundreds marched to the Texas Capitol, demanding increased funding for public schools while opposing Governor Abbott’s advancing school choice voucher plan. Proponents argue vouchers offer educational options, but critics contend they could harm public schools, many of which are already facing budget shortfalls. The rally, organized by Save Texas Schools, highlighted the urgent need for increased per-student funding, which has remained stagnant since 2019. Teachers expressed concerns over layoffs and program cuts, emphasizing the importance of public education. As lawmakers prepare to debate the voucher legislation, protesters plan another rally in April to continue their advocacy.

Protesters gathered at the state capitol Saturday to call for more funding in public schools.
