    Manslaughter in front of a grand jury didn’t even stick. It’s like the prosecutor had vacation plans didn’t want to to reschedule.

    The awful thing is that if the family is behind the alcoholic trump father since he is still alive, there is no one left to bring justice in her name. Is she just to be forgotten and swept under the Texas rug?

      the boyfriend says the the daughter and father always argued when he brought up him owning guns and the father claims they never discussed it before once and he accidently shot her when he was just showing her his gun. while he was drunk, the boyfriend also says the father pulled her into the father’s room before he heard the shot go off. it sounds like the judge, and prosecution in TX don’t really care if you kill your kids as long as you say ‘oops’ well enough.

      Seems like it, but these rural Texans won’t give a shit because she’s a woman. Stepped outside the kitchen and talked back to her pa so basically asked for it.
