AUSTIN (KXAN) -- According to jail records, 17 of the 19 APD officers indicted related to use of force allegations during the May 2020 protests have turned themselves in.
The officers' attorneys addressed the case at a press conference Monday afternoon.
Below is a list of officers that have bonded out. All were charged with aggravated assault by a public servant:

The indictments were announced on Feb. 17.
Travis County District Attorney Jose Garza said the facts discovered through his office’s investigation of the incidents are “disturbing,” and they believe many protesters injured by law enforcement during the protests were “innocent bystanders.”
Garza said the protesters suffered “significant and serious injuries to the head, face and body,” and some may never recover.
Austin Police Chief Joseph Chacon responded immediately after the indictments were announced saying he was "extremely disappointed" in the announcement of the indictments.
