Court records show she is held on $10,000 bail pending a Friday appearance.

Overview

  • Holmes, 45, is charged with hindering apprehension or prosecution of a known felon after her Wednesday arrest, according to Harris County records.
  • Authorities say she is accused of aiding Johnathan Saizon, who faces aggravated kidnapping and aggravated assault charges tied to an Oct. 8 attack on his ex-girlfriend; both remain in custody.
  • Investigators report a traffic stop for expired registration and surveillance at a Cypress residence preceded Saizon fleeing on foot before his later apprehension.
