GEORGETOWN, Texas - Reality TV shows can no longer contract with Texas law enforcement agencies after Gov. Greg Abbott signed House Bill 54, also known as the Javier Ambler law.The new Williamson County sheriff said earlier this month that he felt this bill was a direct result of the old administration's partnership with the reality TV show "Live PD".Javier Ambler was killed during an altercation with Williamson County deputies.
On March 28, 2019, deputies pursued Ambler's car from Williamson County into Travis County where he died while deputies were trying to take him into custody.
