Suspects remain jailed on felony charges

Two men remain in the Bastrop County Jail awaiting trials on separate felony charges, including violent and sex-related offenses.

Mark Faske Jr., 38, is scheduled to stand trial July 8 on charges of stalking and retaliation, third-degree felonies, as well as a second-degree robbery offense. His bonds total $110,000.

According to an affidavit, Faske was arrested March 11 for evading arrest in a vehicle and unlawful possession of a firearm charges related to a 2017 incident. Police allege the suspect physically assaulted and robbed a woman in August 2023 and added a stalking offense from an incident two months prior.

His criminal history in Bastrop County dates back to a burglary of a habitation charge in 2006.

Ernesto Vasquez Campos, 40, is in custody awaiting trial in the 335th District Court on a second- degree felony charge of solicitation of prostitution of a minor. His bond sum is set at $50,000.

Campos was originally arrested in November 2024 in connection with the case, which authorities said stems from a June 2023 incident.

Court records allege Campos attempted to induce a person younger than 17 to engage in sexual acts.
