SUMMARY: As the high-profile trial of Gerald Gos approaches, questions arise about courtroom attendees. There is speculation about the extent of support from the Houston Police Department (HPD), as past trials often featured numerous officers showing solidarity for the defendant. The presence of former HPD Chief R. O. and former union head Joe Galdi is also uncertain. District Attorney Kim A’s attendance remains unclear, raising further inquiries. Most notably, the involvement of victim Regina Nicholas’s elderly mother is questioned, as her presence could provide emotional significance during the trial for her daughter’s murder.
