Vences had been on the run since June after skipping court on a second-degree felony home burglary, two family violence cases, and a criminal trespass — all while already on probation for a prior home burglary.
U.S. Marshals arrested him Sunday afternoon with help from APD and DPS.
Thomas Vences cycled through Austin's courts for two decades. He exposed his violence again and again. Walked out every time.
He’s been charged with capital murder of a peace officer and is being held on a $2,500 bond.
Prosecutors had 32 chances to stop him.
Now a deputy is dead.

Autism Capital @AutismCapital - In 1968 John B. Calhoun ran an experiment he called Universe 25 where he took a bunch of rats and gave them infinite resources and endless abundance but limited space.
The population grew exponentially until males began fighting, females abandoned their young, and the younger males withdrew completely from society and stopped engaging, socializing, and reproducing.
Then a new class of mice emerged called "The Beautiful Ones," who were physically perfect but never engaged in society or reproduced at all. All they were focused on was their appearance, grooming, eating, and sleeping.
The rats went totally extinct after this.

Autism Capital @AutismCapital - Why did the Nick Shirley comment disappear from under the Tim Walz post? It only appears if you sort by likes.
