AUSTIN, Tex. -- (KXAN) -- There are questions surrounding nearly 1,000 criminal convictions in Travis County.
Delia Perez Meyer says her brother, Louis Castro Perez, is among the death row inmates who received a Brady notice stating his case could be compromised due to new DNA information. Meyer hopes reanalysis will prove her brother's innocence.
“That picture's been sitting there for 18 years,” Meyer says while pointing to the center of her kitchen table, where you'll find the center of her world. “It's 99.9 percent of my life.”
Meyer said defending her brother's innocence has become her life's work.
“We've just been fighting.”
