Victor Godinez is charged with capital murder of a peace officer in the shooting death of Moises Sanchez; prosecutors are seeking the death penalty.

The trial is scheduled for January 8, 2024.

Sanchez was shot while responding to a crash on Freddy Gonzalez and North 10th Street in April 2019. Sanchez died four months later after several surgeries.

Hidalgo County District Attorney Terry Palacios confirmed the jury selection process was complete. About 800 potential jurors were called in, but only 12 were selected along with a few alternatives.

The jury selection process began back in October.
