Texas has laws concerning the killing of a spouse for having sex with another.
It used to be : if a spouse shoots his other half when caught in flagrente delecto in Texas, he or she has committed no crime.
Apprehended extramarital sex is a defence to murder in Texas, and a mitigation of sentence.
It is a surprise that to me he got any time at all.
Very interesting insight.
Nothing says “advanced society” like sanctioning wife murder.
