Wondering what the modification of his bond conditions are? He is on GPS tracking & out of jail. I did notice bond notice hearing on 7/10/23. Now wondering if the 3/30/23 hearing is still a go? Or the Motion for continuance is moving that date to 7/10/23?
What do YOU think? LOL!

Seriously though I *think* the continuance means the 3/30 date is cancelled as opposed to say, changing it to another preliminary hearing.

"She told my older sister Margie that if something happened to her, it was her husband who murdered her," said Cecilia's sister Mireya Lopez.
That phone call was made on July 8, 2019, it was the last time anyone would ever hear from 29-year-old Cecilia Huerta Gallegos.
"We reached out to my uncle, he took the police up there that next morning, but her husband said she left with someone else. But he did have scratches all over his neck and his face," Lopez recalled.

It wasn't until Cecilia vanished that they realized the extent of what she'd been dealing with during her five-year marriage. Homicide detectives quickly got involved following her disappearance and what they found on the home surveillance footage was alarming.

Lopez says a week after Cecilia vanished, she went to their home and pleaded with Reyes for answers.
"All he said, he got on his knees, he started crying, and he said she changed a lot," Lopez said.

"At this point, we really don't care what time they give him. All we want is her, we want her back," said Lopez.

Family desperate to find remains of Cecilia Huerta Gallegos as her husband prepares to stand trial for murder
In this edition of 'The Missing', the family of Cecilia Huerta-Gallegos says it was after she went behind her husband's back, and filed for a divorce that they learned about the danger she was in. The day she disappeared, she called her family and delivered a chilling final message.

Man accused of murdering missing San Antonio woman heading to trial
A trial is set to begin later this month for Reyes Gallegos, who is accused of murdering his wife, while her 4 children were inside the home.
www.kens5.com
SAN ANTONIO — Mireya Lopez says the loss of her sister Cecilia Huerta Gallegos has impacted everyone in the family including herself and Cecilia's children.
************
Reyes Gallegos was arrested in August of 2021 for Cecilia's murder. A trial date has been set for October 23rd. The family continues searching for Cecilia's body. Lopez says in the next week or so they will be searching a dump site in San Antonio.
"I want him to confess where she's at, and for us to have a little bit of peace. I think we deserve the peace, and we deserve to lay her to rest in peace," Lopez said.
Lopez tells us that prosecutors have offered Gallegos a plea deal in hopes of avoiding a trial, but if he doesn't accept the deal then they will go to trial.

I am not too sure that the actual trial starts on 10/23 - as it says: Awaiting Trial & Trial Date Set. I am thinking it means they WILL set a trial date on 10/23.
I could be wrong....

October 17 another motion for continuance was filed and granted on the 18th. No new dates posted yet but it looks like today’s trial will be rescheduled. Sigh.
I’ll check again later.

Authorities say around the time Cecilia was last seen, her husband Reyes Gallegos turned off the cameras at home for a short period of time.
"He shut down the cameras at 2 a.m. and by 3:30 a.m. he puts them back on. He left the home around 6 a.m. and came back at 8:30 a.m., unloading a chainsaw and shovels," Lopez said.
Reyes Gallegos was arrested in August of 2021 for Cecilia's murder. A trial date has been set for October 23rd. The family continues searching for Cecilia's body. Lopez says in the next week or so they will be searching a dump site in San Antonio.
