Overview
- Wyatt, 56, was arrested Saturday in Galveston County on a DWI charge, according to jail records reported by multiple outlets.
- Bond information has been reported inconsistently, with ABC13 citing no bond at first and Houston Public Media and KPRC reporting a $3,000 cash bond and later release.
- This is her second DWI case during her term, after a 2023 arrest in Houston that was dismissed when she completed a pretrial diversion program that lets some first-time defendants meet conditions to avoid a conviction.
- A December 2025 arrest on a burglary-of-a-vehicle charge was no-billed by a Harris County grand jury in April, and her attorney has pointed to recent consultations for cerebrovascular disease and a mini-stroke as context presented to jurors.
- Wyatt remains on the November ballot for treasurer as county commissioners voted in February to strip key duties from the office and to seek its dissolution, a move that would require approval by lawmakers and voters.
