A former assistant district attorney in El Paso has pleaded not guilty in federal court to a charge involving allegations that he conspired through text messages to accept cash if he would seek to dismiss criminal cases.

Antonio “Tony” Reyes was arrested and charged on Nov. 12 with the felony offense of “conspiracy to commit wire fraud and the deprivation of honest services.” Reyes was released from custody on Nov. 13 after posting a $20,000 bond. On Nov. 14, he waived his appearance for arraignment and entered a plea of not guilty.
