If it weren’t for an inspirational criminal-justice professor, Robb Catalano may never have gone to law school, become a prosecutor and eventually assumed the bench of Tarrant County Criminal District Court No. 3.
Catalano attended St. Edward’s University in Austin because he won a baseball scholarship. He enrolled in a course called Introduction to Criminal Justice just because it sounded interesting. Little did he know that the professor, David Horton, would inspire him to pursue his lifelong career.
