The trial begins Monday for the man accused of killing 11-year-old Josue Flores while he was walking home from school in northeast Houston in May 2016.
The case has taken several turns over the years.Investigators said the 11-year-old boy was stabbed more than 20 times as he was walking home from Marshall Middle School on May 17, 2016.The first was cleared by his alibi.
The second, Andre Jackson, a former Marine, was released in July 2017 after his arrest when investigators said DNA evidence made it impossible to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he is responsible for the crime.District Attorney Kim Ogg announced that Jackson was indicted in the case. He was arrested for the second time and charged in the case after investigators said they received new test results on DNA evidence in Josue’s murder.
Court documents filed by HPD revealed that a judge granted Jackson’s request for HPD to return belongings seized in 2016. HPD agreed to return two cellphones and a purple spray paint can, but wrote that “clothing items seized from the defendant continue to be needed as evidence in the investigation.”
“To return those items now would materially interfere with the ongoing investigation into the death of Josue Flores,” the documents continued. The jacket was retested in Florida after the HPD Cold Case Unit “learned about new technology.” The FBI helped pay for the new, advanced DNA testing.A little more than a year after Josue’s death, a law bearing his name was passed.
