Judge to hear evidence against Houston-born singer D4vd in killing, dismemberment of teen and decide on trial

Summary by Spring Editorial Desk · Based on reporting by Associated Press, Houston Public Media · July 21, 2026 · 1 min read

The preliminary hearing in Los Angeles is expected to last about four days and will look much like an abbreviated trial.

Why this matters in Spring

The decision to end automatic free meals at certain Houston ISD campuses has implications for families in Spring, where many students attend schools that may be affected by this change. Although Spring is served by the Spring ISD and Klein ISD school districts, not Houston ISD, the broader trend of shifting meal programs could impact local schools in the future. Families in Spring who rely on neighboring Houston ISD schools or have friends and relatives attending those schools will be watching this development closely. The Harris County government and local organizations may need to consider additional support for families who can no longer rely on automatic free meals, particularly in areas prone to economic hardship. As the new school year approaches, families in Spring and surrounding areas will be looking for guidance on how to navigate the changing meal programs and potential resources available to support their children.
