Two of three suspects charged in the fatal shooting of a Harris County Sheriff’s Deputy Darren Almendarez appeared in court Tuesday morning.

Tardy and Clark faced a judge, Tuesday. For Tardy, the death penalty is not an option.

“He is charged with capital murder because he is 17 years of age the U.S. Supreme Court said some time ago that you can not seek the death penalty,” Alvin Nunnery, Tardy’s court appointed attorney said. Dozier says they are confident about the capital murder charge for Stewart, Clark and Tardy. She says they are investigating if a fourth person was involved.

“It is absolutely clear there were three individuals,” she said. “There is the possibility there could of been another individual.”“It’s imperative, it’s absolutely imperative that we get this right,” Dozier said.
