Out of maybe 20 of us working on the same line, 2 of them murdered a family member. So ~10% of the group were murderers. One was completely unexpected, but the other was less of a surprise. You never know who will kill their spouse or another family member, but there's usually a clear motive. If they can't discover a motive, or manufacture one, there's a good chance this guy won't be convicted. But some people are convicted without any of the physical evidence and admitted facts there are in this case.

You just never know about folks....and sometimes you do but it just takes time.

I went to school with two brothers, one older than me and one a couple years younger than me. Both tended toward violence as a family trait. We used to joke about them in school as to which one would end up in prison for murder first after graduation.
Well, fast forward 30 years..... older brother settled into the family auto repair business and runs it well. Younger brother now sits in prison, having just recently been convicted of pummeling his poor wife to death in their home a couple years ago.

.. I requested to see the gun in the jury room ( Judge commented that was the first time a juror had made such a request)...

I was a juror on a federal trial in Atlanta.  6 guns had been submitted as evidence.  When we got the case, before we could even get seated in the jury room, one of the oldest jurors, a grandmotherly, 90# black lady asks the bailiff to bring in guns.   And she knew how to operate them for sure.  I later asked her why she did that, because they didn't really have any bearing on our discussions.   She said, she just wanted to play with them. ;)   One sharp lady, btw.

Most of us here are on the older side. I don't know about you guys, but I cannot even fathom how the next generation of women in this country are going to be, as far as being able live with. I'm guessing all but impossible. Between this whole, "Me Too Movement".... Consisting of, "He pinched my ass 30 years ago, and now I'm traumatized", crap. To just the way women in this country have copped an attitude about everything now a days. (Just look at them wrong, and you're "harassing" them).

I'd hate like hell to be in my 20's today. And be forced to pick one out of the crap that's presently being offered. While I'm sure there are still a few decent one's out there if you're willing to look hard enough. They're getting harder to find than a solid copper penny.

Update:

Tex claims, supposedly said, according to a witness that he was concerned with the BLM marches and the number of people milling around downtown ATL, that's why he took the gun out of the console.

It was in a plastic Publix grocery bag.   

He didn't take it out of the bag.

BUT:  Being all concerned about his safety, supposedly elevated adrenaline you'd think, he decided to doze back off.    You wonder if he was "on" something.  Nobody thought to take his blood sample that night.

AND That's when the gun went off.  Inside the bag.  I'm sure it shredded both sides of that bag as well as blast from the muzzle.

Police forensics confirm the gun was inside the bag when it discharged.  They also confirm it was in perfect working order, only one shot was fired, and that the trigger had to be pulled for it to discharge.   I've found an article that says it was a S&W in .38spl, but still don't have the model number. 

Also of the three largest hospitals in the area, Piedmont would have been the closest, Emory, the old Crawford Long not the one on Emory campus, would have been second closest and Grady the farthermost, but only by a mile.   However, the path to Piedmont and Emory are not straight forward, while had they turned around and used Courtland (a 4-5 lane one way south street) it would have taken them straight to  Grady.   They could have blown right through the few red lights at that time of night.  Maybe picked up a police car.   It took them over 10 minutes, according to one source, to get to the ER.

 Diane might have been saved had EMTs gotten to her sooner.

Was this all part of Tex's evil plan, according to the DA?
