DALLAS — The Collin County judge presiding over the case of a 17-year-old’s fatal stabbing at a Frisco track meet is the victim of a doxxing attempt, according to a report from the Dallas Morning News.
A post circulating on X appeared to reveal District Judge Angela Tucker’s home address. The post has since been removed from the social media site for violating its rules.
Austin Metcalf was killed in the April 2 stabbing and another 17-year-old has been charged in the case.
The doxxing attempt happened after Tucker lowered the bail of the minor charged in the case from $1 million to $250,000 on April 14, a decision that was met with backlash online.
Doxxing refers to sharing someone’s personal information online and is typically done with malicious intent. Texas law prohibits publicizing a judicial officer’s personal information online.
In a post on X, Collin County officials said the case “will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law." Authorities opened an investigation into the matter.
Tucker’s X account is currently placed on private.
