Posted on February 26, 2026

According to County Court records, Jeremy Jordan, the husband of former City Rep. Cassandra Hernandez, was indicted for felony assault with a deadly weapon on April 15, 2025 and arraigned on May 15. He was scheduled for a hearing on January 30 but he failed to show, which caused the postponement of the hearing until this coming March 3 at 9:00am.

State of Texas vs. Jeremy Martin Jordan is case no. 20250D02197 and will be heard in the 210th Judicial District Court of Judge Alyssa Perez.

According to KVIA, Jeremy Jordan was accused of aggravated assault on October 22, 2024, one day after the start of early voting in the General Election, in which his wife was running for mayor.

Hernandez told investigators she and Rafael Alvarado were in their “undergarments” when Jordan discovered them at her home.

Court documents indicate that Alvarado took refuge in a bathroom but that Jordan broke through the door and punched him in the face “repeatedly” and then yelled “I am going to kill you.”

According to the indictment, provided to us by a clerk of the 210th Judicial District Court, Jordan “did then and there intentionally or knowingly threaten Rafael Alvarado with imminent bodily injury and did then and there use or exhibit a deadly weapon during the commission of said assault, to-wit: shard of glass, that in the manner of its use and intended use was capable of causing death and serious bodily injury.”

After the encounter, Hernandez drove Alvarado to UMC East for emergency treatment. Investigators stated that Alvarado suffered a concussion, cut to his left cheek, injuries to the left part of his head, neck, back, and left hand.

Jordan was booked and posted a bond of $1,000. He told investigators that he acted in self-defense but did not offer details.

This is not Jordan’s first brush with the law. He was arrested and charged in December 2015 on suspicion of assault family violence and criminal mischief, which resulted in his termination as legislative aide to City Rep. Cortney Niland of District 8. All charges were dismissed in April 2016.
