Ah - I see he has a new case # for the 144th district. I'll be back in about a week - so see if there has been any updates for a court hearing. If you don't mind... :)
 
Cecilia Gallegos was seen arriving home from work on July 7 at 7:39 p.m. She last appears as she enters the bedroom she shares with Reyes Gallegos at 7:53 p.m.

The recordings also indicate Gallegos left the home for three short periods of time. then left the home at 6:30 a.m. on July 8 and did not return until 8:50 a.m., the affidavit states.

The video also captured Gallegos unloading a chainsaw, two shovels and heavy duty trash bags in front of their home that day. The video cameras were shut off around 2 a.m., and remained off for two hours, according to the affidavit.
S.A. man charged in wife’s death 3 years after she disappeared

The murder charge against Gallegos was among 265 felony indictments handed down by two Bexar County grand juries this week!

I get the feeling a body will not be required in this case. For whatever reason, this case grabbed me and I'm glad after the amount of time that elapsed that they were able to charge
