Arguments for Thibodeax Appeal: Former Pastor’s Fate Hanging in the Balance

WRITTEN BY MARY MCDONALD & SCOTT W. MARSTERS, SR.

Did a Freestone County trial court abuse its discretion by denying former pastor Anthony Lynn Thibodeaux’s motion for a new trial in March 2014, based on a possible Brady violation that may have resulted in egregious harm to the outcome of the case?

That is one of four issues raised, in which, the Texas 10th Court of Appeals shall deliberate then hand down its ruling to grant or deny Mr. Thibodeaux a new trial.

Thibodeaux was previously convicted for sexual assault and two counts of indecency with a child in Freestone County, Texas. (The minor child will be referred to as J.S. in this article.)
Oral arguments were not requested by the three Judge panel.
