The suspect of a double homicide that took place last fall was given new restrictions for his release on bond.

Following an indictment on Nov. 6 on charge of capital murder of multiple persons, Garrett James Ballard was released from Burnet County Jail on Dec. 8 on bond of $500,000.

The new restrictions imposed require him to report in person on a weekly basis to the 33rd, 424th Judicial District Community Supervision and Corrections Department, submit to weekly drug and alcohol testing at his expense, maintain or actively seek gainful employment, submit to GPS electronic monitoring, maintain a 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. curfew at his residence and remain in  Burnet County, in addition to many other prohibitions.
