I wonder if the A.G. recommended a no bill, true bill, or simply presented the case with no recommendation?
What is the difference in a no-bill and a true bill? I don't think I ever heard of a "true bill".
A true bill means the defendant is indicted and will proceed to trial. A no bill simply means no indictment at this time.

I am not connected to this law firm but you can read more about it here:

I think this case will go to grand jury. We see what happens.
I will add my two cents and say I do not believe Texas law allows lethal force for "mere" trespass.
