Attorney Tony Buzbee disputes Austin PD’s investigation into Texas A&M student Brianna Aguilera’s death

Houston-based attorney Tony Buzbee said on Friday that the Austin Police Department (APD) rushed its investigation into the death of a former Texas A&M University student.

Brianna Aguilera, 19, was found unresponsive in the early morning hours of Nov. 29 outside an apartment complex in the 2100 block of Rio Grande Street, located in the heart of the student living area for University of Texas at Austin students.

Austin police officers suspect that Aguilera died by suicide. However, in a joint news conference with Gamez Law Firm and Aguilera’s mother, Buzbee argued APD does not have the authority to rule a cause of death.

“You can’t close a case before you even have the cause of death from the medical examiner,”
