(Stephenville, Tx) – A Stephenville man charged with Intoxication Manslaughter in connection with a fatal drunk driving accident in January is back behind bars following two recent arrests.

24-year-old Justin Schrader was arrested May 31 and charged with public intoxication after an alleged altercation with his girlfriend at a Stephenville bar.  According to the Stephenville Empire Tribune, Schrader bonded out of the Erath County Jail, but was back behind bars Tuesday, charged with assault/family violence.  Authorities took to social media on Tuesday after Schrader failed to turn himself in as promised.  The paper says he then later posted a picture of himself on Facebook standing in front of the Stephenville Police station saying I’m here.

Schrader was arrested in January on charges of Intoxication Manslaughter and Intoxication Assault in connection with an accident on Morgan Mill Road that killed 40-year-old Stephenville resident Susan Silvia and injured her passenger.  Since 2012, Schrader has been arrested four times for Public Intoxication.
