Jury Finds Decision on Man Who Shot 2 Easy
From Times Wire Reports
A man who shot off his girlfriend’s face and killed her mother was convicted of murder and attempted murder in Waco and sentenced to life in prison.
Jurors deliberated about 30 minutes before finding Terrence Dewaine Kelly guilty, and another 20 minutes before deciding on two life sentences, one for murdering Janice Reeves and one for disfiguring Carolyn Thomas. Bandages still cover most of Thomas’ face, 16 months after the 2003 shooting and the first of six planned reconstructive surgeries.
