Father Arrested For Alleged Murder Of Daughter And Her Girlfriend

In today's diverse society one would hope that every parent would at least try to come from a place of acceptance with their children. Sadly this is not the case, and some people still have major issues with the thought that their child might be gay. A young lesbian couple were tragically killed in Texas, and authorities have arrested the father of one of the victims as a suspect.

“Anytime you have a crime like this you want to talk to the family, co-workers, friends to gain any information you can and, during that interview, pretty much it became an investigation,” Galveston County Sheriff Henry Trochesset said. “When we went to the residence to talk to him, some of the things we saw there, it increased and went further. We got a search warrant for the residence and our crime scene investigators were there last night, and after the event at the park, we drove him down to talk to us at the Sheriff’s Office.”

Man Wrongfully Convicted Tells His Story

You may have heard his story in the media, but if you haven't it is a good idea to read his story as it serves as a warning. This man spent 25 years behind bars for a crime that he didn't commit. I have touched on this in a prior blog post, but I think it is important to read this man's firsthand account.

I went out to eat with my family and team, and I had a huge steak. It was amazing, and I remembered what real food tasted like. I went to my lawyer Taylor's house and played video games with his kids. His wife opened the closet and gave me sweaters and shirts because I have no clothing. I spent time with my lawyer Anthony and my investigators Bob and Kim. They have done so much for me. My lawyers put me up in a hotel for a few nights because I have nowhere to live.
