Top candidate for San Antonio Animal Care Services director was once under criminal investigation

A top candidate to replace San Antonio Animal Care Services' retired director faced a criminal investigation over accusations that he wrongfully euthanized dogs and falsified records, according to documents obtained by the Current. Montgomery County Animal Care Services Executive Director Aaron Johnson, who was eventually cleared of those allegations, applied to lead the city's beleaguered ACS department in January 2024. He remains one of two candidates still under consideration for that job, city officials confirmed.
