A Bexar County judge denied a defense motion to set bond for Dorian Xavier Gutierrez after the state said it would not agree to a $20,000 bond and a witness testified the defendant had violated a protective no-contact order.

During a bond-setting hearing, the state offered a witness who said she and Gutierrez had lived together and that incidents of drug use and violence escalated beginning in 2024. The witness, identified in court as Jasmine Timpson, testified that after a January incident in which both she and Gutierrez were arrested she believed Gutierrez tested positive for methamphetamine and cocaine and that Child Protective Services (CPS) had implemented a no-contact directive. She told the court that in June Gutierrez came to her home, she let him in, and later he slashed her tire after she grabbed a gold chain he wore.

The judge queried whether a protective order and the pending assault-family violence charge were in place. After hearing the witness and briefing from both sides, the judge said: '''The court is denying your motion for bond. You will not be given a bond by me.''' The court cited the defendant's existing bond on an assault-family-violence choking charge and the newly alleged violation of a protective order.

Defense counsel asked the court to consider less-restrictive conditions, such as electronic monitoring (GPS) and supervised contact through the grandmother the CPS-appointed supervisor. The judge acknowledged the defense request but reiterated that a bond would not be set at that time because the protective-order violation and the underlying assault charge weighed against release.

No bond was set; the defendant remained in custody. The record reflects testimony about CPS involvement, prior positive drug tests reported by a caseworker, and an allegation of slashed tires as criminal mischief.
