Texas jury convicts man of killing 6 of ex-wife's family

HOUSTON - A man accused of fatally shooting six members of his ex-wife's family, including four children, in an act of vengeance is guilty of capital murder, a jury in Houston decided on Thursday .

Prosecutors alleged Haskell was motivated by vengeance and had plotted to hurt anybody who helped his ex-wife, Melannie Lyon, after she left him. Lyon testified that Haskell physically abused her and their children, so she moved them all from Utah to Texas to be with her family after the divorce. Stay clasped her hands as if in prayer and bowed her head before the verdict was read. Afterward, she wiped away tears. Stay later smiled and took deep breaths as she hugged prosecutors in the Houston courtroom. Haskell showed no reaction to the verdict. He looked down to the floor, as he did throughout the trial.

Another life taken away by selfish PMD rider, illegal specs and possibly riding with high speed. Even car could not stop immediately during emergency at that speed. This 20 year old guy will face the consequences due to own stubbornness to ignore laws & his parents allowed it!
