Court sets bond at $8,500 and orders sobriety meetings for man on deferred adjudication

The 187th District Court set bond at $8,500 for Jesus Santoyo and imposed supervisory conditions including a no‑contact order and required sober‑support meetings, the court announced in a bond hearing.

Assistant prosecutors and defense counsel presented competing bond recommendations; the state sought roughly $15,000 while the defense requested $5,000, pointing to Santoyo's employment and family responsibilities. Defense counsel called Santoyo to testify about his role as the primary support for two children and his work as a materials-delivery driver.

Judge Stephanie Boyd set the bond at $8,500 and ordered no contact with Celestino Vasquez. The court also mandated 30 sober‑support meetings (described on the record as NA/AA meetings) within 30 days and set a recall date to review the motion to revoke or related matters.

The judge noted an outstanding county-court matter and asked parties to confirm related orders; she set the next status setting for the end of the month for compliance and further review.
