Dan Patrick Tuesday on Tuesday called for a Texas Rangers investigation into a convicted killer’s escape from state custody and his subsequent slaying ofGonzalo Lopez, 46, escaped a Texas Department of Criminal Justice prison bus on May 12 and managed to elude authorities for three weeks.
Lopez, who was serving a life sentence for capital murder, was on his way to receive treament for a detached retina, removed his handcuffs and stabbed the bus driver with a prison shank before hijacking the bus. Among the questions Patrick wants the Texas Rangers to answer are: how Lopez escaped the cage and his handcuffs, how the prison guard in the back of the bus did not notice, whether or not Lopez was searched before boarding the bus and how he was able to elude law enforcement for so long.
