Sorry, no time to read the 54-page and 48-page opinions right now, but I thought I'd pass the news (and links) on anyway.
In October 2007, Kosoul Chanthakoummane was convicted of murdering Sarah Walker, a Frisco real-estate agent, during the course of a robbery in one of her model homes. Evidence from the medical examiner revealed blunt force trauma to Walker's head consistent with being struck with a plant stand. Conviction and death penalty affirmed. See opinion HERE.
In May 2008, a jury convicted Randall Wayne Mays of capital murder for the shooting death of Henderson County Deputy Sheriff Tony Ogburn. Conviction and death penalty affirmed. See opinion HERE.
