The Supreme Court of Texas has ordered the release of Dallas salon owner Shelley Luther after she was sentenced to seven days in jail and a $7,000 fine for defying the state's stay-at-home orders during the COVID-19 pandemic by reopening her business. After the sentence was imposed by Judge Eric Moye, a national outcry ensued, and the state’s attorney general urged her release. A GoFundMe has raised nearly $500,000 for the mother of three, who said she had fallen behind on her mortgage.
