They think they’re cute. I asked for the total cost of the Seth Sutton trial so they have let me know the cost of the pizza and food. THIS is your government in McLennan County, bullshit artists, well, me too. I have now asked them for the total cost of the prosecution of Seth Sutton, including all the whatevers, but they knew that.
I bring you THEIR fucked up truth.

Please see the attached info which is responsive to your below request. I
am still not getting the requests submitted through Muckrock. It looks like
they are being submitted through the Sheriff’s Office open records portal,
which at this time, I do not have access to.
The District Clerk’s Office gathered the below Juror Pay info:
Venire: 86 @7.50: $645
Panel: 14 @ 15 (1st day) and @40 (subsequent): $2450
Total: $3095
Please see the below note from the Auditor’s Office.
So far I have the attached invoices related to the Sutton trial.
1. Smedley Rue LLC (Schmaltz) 386.00
2. Chuck’s Pizza 178.30
At this time, there are no other costs I can find out of the ordinary that
are specific to that trial. Of course, there are salary costs, overhead
costs, etc. but those are not specific to the trial.
