Abilene city council candidate served with lawsuit while on Facebook live
ABILENE, Texas () – An Abilene city council candidate was served with a lawsuit while on Facebook live Friday afternoon. Cynthia Alvidrez, running for Abilene City Council Place 5, was on Facebook live recording a police standoff in south Abilene around 1:00 p.m. when a Taylor County Constable approached her and served her with the lawsuit. KTAB and KRBC pulled the details of the lawsuit after the incident and learned Abilene Teacher's Federal Credit Union is seeking damages against Alvidrez in the amount of $15,976.83. The lawsuit states $9,181.16 is owed because Alvidrez allegedly defaulted on a loan that was opened in September 2020, and $6,661.67 is owned after the sale of a BMW. Cynthia Alvidrez seeks Abilene city council seat, says leadership is 'failing' While Alvidrez was still live on Facebook, KTAB and KRBC asked her about the lawsuit, and she claimed it was over a BMW vehicle that had a faulty engine that she gave back to the bank. Alvidrez said, 'I'm no different than the average people you see walking down the street struggling day by day, hence why I'm running again because we have had our water and sewer bonds sold on the market, we had a hotel we didn't need, and that's just adding that much more stress on what we've already got going on.' Alvidrez went on to claim that the motor in her BMW went out two years ago, and she made her payment for months before she 'just couldn't do it anymore.' She then stated that she'll talk to the bank about it whenever they go to court.
