@Niner - posting entire case event because I don't recall if she was first arrested on robbery warrant?
(I'm pretty sure this is correct defendant).

 
San Antonio woman claims her elderly aunt was the ‘mastermind’ in hiding King Jay’s death

June 4, 2019


Torres’ attorney, Karl Basile, declined to comment on Elizabeth Sampayo’s allegations against her aunt.

Basile said it’s too early in the case to weigh any plea agreements regarding Torres’ role.

“Neither the state nor I are in a position where we can discuss any type of agreement, or what we’re going to do with the case other than just further our investigations and come back and talk some more later,” he said.
bbm


Torres is being held in the Bexar County jail on a $250,000 bond.

ETA: I'm really uncertain about AT's motivation to cooperate and/or seek a plea agreement. She's been in jail since January and hasn't budged as far as I can tell! MOO

I am sorry but I think the whole lot of em need to be put away!

what are you sorry for ! YOU ARE CORRECT !!! ugh sick bunch of lowlifes , honestly I don't know which would have been worse being raised by that family or being deceased ....I'm leaning toward the poor child is in a better place and I'm not religious ...now how's that for horrifying , sweet baby didn't have a chance ...AT ALL.
 
By far this child is in a better place! I am so saddened by the way some of our sweet babies are being raised and these poor kids think this is how life is for everyone! Baby King Jay never had a chance.

Christopher Davila's trial expected to begin Tuesday


Inside the 227th Criminal District Court on Monday, the welcome was not warm by defendants Angie Torres and her grandmother, Beatrice Sampayo. Torres gave the media a profane gesture while Sampayo was wheeled away as she covered her face with a shawl.

It will be a bit longer before both learn their fate as their attorneys reset their trials while they wait on a key player, Christopher Davila.

"Christopher's case is set for tomorrow; we really won't know much until after tomorrow whether its going to trial or when it's going to trial," Karl Basile, the attorney for Angie Torres, told KENS 5 on Monday.
[.....]
All three were charged in this case but none are facing a murder charge... even though baby King Jay's death was ruled a homicide by blunt force trauma.

When we asked District Attorney Joe Gonzalez why that was the case, he previously sent us this statement saying:
"We have charged all the people where evidence supports a charge related to the death of baby King Jay Davila and concealing evidence of the crime..."
 
Now I'm confused - it sounds like they (Torres & Sampano) were supposed to go to trial on 10/21 - well according to this article - if I'm reading it right.... And Chris' is supposed to start today??

Trial of grandmother, aunt of Baby King Jay recalled until father's trial is decided

SAN ANTONIO - The trial of two relatives charged in connection with the death of Baby King Jay Davila has been recalled on Monday morning.

A Bexar County Judge has recalled the trial of Beatrice Sampayo and Angie Torres until the case of Baby King Jay's father Christopher Davila has been decided.
[.....]
Davila is charged with injury to a child by omission. His [Christopher's] case is being held separately where Sampayo and Torres are being tried together. His trial is expected to begin on Tuesday.
 
Christopher Davila's trial delayed until February


Christopher Davila was in court Tuesday as the trial for the man accused of killing 8-month-old baby King Jay Davila was expected to start. The judge, however, announced a delay in the trial until February 2020.

Davila's attorney Robert Behrens is hoping to reach a deal with prosecutors before the trail.

"He is prepared to take an offer if he thinks it's reasonable and so far we don't have a solid offer, so once we get one we can start working on it," Behrens said.
