Hays County makes history with first woman District Judge

By Megan Wehring

HAYS COUNTY — Hays County sees more women in power as Sherri Tibbe was sworn in on Monday as the first woman to be elected as the 453rd District Judge.

“I felt like there needed to be some diversity on the district bench,” Tibbe said. “There had not been a woman who served in that position. I thought that this is 2019, it’s time for somebody to at least try to run for that office.”
