Man who confessed to shooting trans woman has jumped bail
DALLAS -- Domingo Ramirez-Cayente, the man charged with aggravated assault in connection with the Sept. 20 shooting of Dallas trans woman Daniela Calderon, is on the run after being released on bond, according to Kimberlee Leach, director of communications and public information officer for the Dallas County District Attorney’s Office.
“The magistrate set the bond too low,” Leach told Dallas Voice. “The magistrate set the bond at $25,000 with no [electronic leg monitor].”
Noting that Ramirez-Cayente, a Mexican national, has a record of previous criminal activity, and that he had, in the past, fled the country to avoid prosecution, and then returned. Because of that, she said, “As soon as the DA’s office was made aware of the low bond, we moved to amend the conditions of bond to include a monitoring device.
“Unfortunately,” she added, “the defendant had already fled.”
