Mike Anderson, the district attorney in Harris County, Texas, has been assigned around-the-clock security for himself and his family by the local sheriff, in response to the killing of the Kaufman County district attorney over the weekend.
“Mike has accepted additional security offered by [Harris County Sheriff Adrian Garcia], just in case there are any immediate threats in Harris County,” Sara Marie Kinney, a spokeswoman for Anderson’s office, which is based in Houston, told The Houston Chronicle on Monday.
Kinney said Garcia had reached out to Anderson hours after news broke Saturday of the killing of Kaufman County District Attorney Mike McLelland.
