https://abcnews.go.com/US/texas-judge-releases-group-juvenile-defendants-losing-election/story?id=59042447

Democrats swept the benches the night before in 59 local Texas courts, according to the Chronicle. Devlin, a Republican, was among those ousted.

Harris County public defender Steven Halpert, who was in court when the string of releases occurred, told the newspaper that Devlin was "releasing everybody."

"Apparently he was saying that's what the voters wanted," Halpert said.
