(Seguin) – The family of 77-yearold Kenneth Grimm, a Navy veteran who suffered from Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s and dementia, and who was shot and killed by a Guadalupe County Sheriff ’s Deputy last year, is calling for change on how officers respond to mental health situations. The family standing outside the
Guadalupe County Sheriff ’s Office on Saturday with Grimm Family Attorney and Civil Rights Attorney Randall Kallinen, spoke to media outlets on why they thought this fatal shooting should have never happened and why a change in tactics should be made at the local law enforcement agency.

(Seguin) -- The search will soon begin for a new superintendent in the Seguin ISD. Superintendent Dr. Veronica Vijil announced on Thursday her plans to retire after 32 years of public education. The announcement was made after the school board met in closed session for about an hour to discuss the superintendent’s retirement agreement and to discuss hiring a firm to conduct the search for the next superintendent. What is now clear is that Dr. Vijil is retiring as superintendent of schools; however, the details of the retirement agreement get sort of complicated. Dr. Vijil has a contract that currently runs through June 30, 2027. The retirement agreement states that she will remain in her current position until June 30 of this year. At that time,
she will be reassigned to the position of superintendent emeritus. She will then later resign as superintendent emeritus and officially retire from the district on December 31 of this year. That would make December 31, 2025, her last official day as an employee of the district. The duties of the superintendent emeritus are not fully defined, but the resignation agreement states that Dr. Vijil may engage in employment or consulting activities -Superintendent, pg. 4
