Mehler is accused of driving up to his ex-girlfriend and threatening to kill her and her son.

The woman told police she was the victim of a domestic violence incident back in July. She said Mehler continues to text her, according to court records.

Back in July 2024, Alamo Heights police arrested Mehler on several charges, including felony sexual assault and a family violence charge.

The woman told police she is “fearful” of Mehler because his behavior continues to escalate and worried because he is an attorney, according to records.

Mehler’s attorney, Carolyn Wentland, told KSAT her client is innocent. She claims Mehler’s accuser has a history of making false statements.

“In time the truth will be clear but the devastating effects of these charges will last forever for Mr. Mehler,” Wentland said.
