Bubye!

[TNCMAXQ]

Oh gee, he was white? I thought only blacks and hispanics were executed, especially in TX, just because of racism.

[RipSawyer]

Why did you post that picture? He looks like a young man I work with! How am I supposed to forget that?

[Guenevere]

Is there a Why? to this story.

Why break into her house & kill her?

Just pure mean/evil?...on drugs?....Why?

Eleven Years! Oh well, at least he was in Texas, not California, otherwise, he would probably have been out on probation by now, looking for another victim.

He had previous arrests for burglary and auto theft, including an auto theft arrest in Florida where he and some friends were accused of driving a stolen car and leaving a shoplifting trail from there to Texas.

Gee thanks Florida for letting this P.O.S. loose on the general public to escalate his criminal career up to murder.

His mother testified at his trial that she and Shields' father had changed the locks on their home at least twice to keep him from stealing from them. A social worker testified Shields drank alcohol continuously since he was 14 and focused much of his time since the age of 17 on drugs and alcohol.

Well maybe if the P.O.S.'s parents had acted like parents when this P.O.S. was drinking at 14, he might not have grew up to be a murderer. Maybe if they had the P.O.S. arrested for stealing instead of calling a social worker maybe he would have figured out that a life of crime has consequences rather than always being protected by spineless parents.
