Summary
The 187th District Court found Britney Marie Brubaker in violation of community supervision for failing to report; the court revoked supervision and sentenced her to four years in prison, ordering restitution and conditions on contact.
Judge Stephanie Boyd revoked community supervision and sentenced Britney Marie Brubaker to four years in prison after the court found she failed to report as directed.
The hearing in cause number 2021CR8728B addressed the State’s motion to revoke. The state alleged Brubaker failed to report for probation in May and June 2024; Brubaker pleaded “true” to the violation. The prosecutor noted the case history and the nature of the underlying controlled‑substance offense; defense counsel described Brubaker as a single mother who had completed in‑custody treatment programs and had been working full time.
Judge Boyd acknowledged Brubaker’s completion of in‑custody programs including ISF and SADF but said the court had been presented with multiple motions to revoke in the past and stressed the importance of communicating with probation. The court found the violation true, revoked supervision and imposed a four‑year prison sentence. The court ordered restitution of $60 to the Bexar County criminal laboratory, prohibited contact with named individuals including Joshua Lee Zimmerle, recommended therapeutic community placement and barred unsupervised contact with minors.
Brubaker was told she has a limited right to appeal tied to issues raised and ruled on before trial; the judge reminded her of firearm‑possession prohibitions that accompany felony convictions.
