Support Dylan's Legal Defense and Recovery

First, let's say what should to be said: there is no place for death threats against anyone and we are immensely glad that Tarrant County Commissioner Manny Ramirez is safe.

Next, let's talk about how we can support this young man who is in a time of crisis in his life.

Many of us know and have greatly enjoyed Dylan's company. We've known him as a community activist, as a coworker, and as a genuinely kind and caring person who worked hard for his neighbors. We know him as a smart young man who achieved his dream of going to law school so he could help those around him.

Even if you don't know the story of what happened in his life, it is obvious just from publicly available photos that something drastic took place that he had no control over. This gentle, caring person very clearly had a severe mental health challenge after he graduated with his JD. Shortly after returning to Tarrant County to start building his life, something went wrong. And he needs our help now.

His mother, Crystal, is his ardent champion and is doing everything she can for him. This includes getting him set up with all necessary services and being his #1 supporter. This also includes hiring a private attorney to help Dylan get the best defense he can. This young man didn't do the right thing, but just because you suffer a mental health crisis doesn't mean your life should be over. It's time to get him back on his feet and get him the best legal representation possible so he can pay his debt to society and return to doing what he loves: supporting his community.

Everyone who has met Dylan before this sickness took hold of him knows he gave his absolute all to those around him. It's time to give back.
