Defendant Accused of an Indecent Act with a Minor Avoids Prison

SAN ANGELO, TX - Jorge Flores Zamarripa, 35, was given a pre-trial diversion Wednesday morning after facing a charge of indecency with a child through sexual contact.

Zamarripa was accused of touching the genitals of a child identified as being under the age of 17 with his hand. According to court documents Zamarripa will be on pre-trial diversion probation for two years and pay a fee and standard probation monthly fee. 

When a person enters into a pre-trial diversion, the prosecution and defense agree to divert the trial for an established time frame and place the defendant on pre-trial probation. 

Once the time-frame has passed and the defendant complies with all the conditions, the D.A.’s office will dismiss all of the charges in the case and the defendant will be free to go without having to plead guilty to any crime relating to that matter.
