    He was an HVAC technician. You know he is a man that isn’t afraid of hard work. RIP BROTHER!

    It takes a special kind of criminal stupidity to upgrade vandalism to murder.
  • @DanMeyer80
    How about a description of the suspects???
  • @helenzambrana
    This is absolutely heartbreaking. I’m tired of this violence in Houston. It has become horrible.
  • @kelvinbirch5641
    Disgraceful.... My sincere condolences to the victim family
  • @bethford6884
    This poor woman, losing her husband this way. I hope they catch the killers. There was no reason this man should have died this way.
  • This is horrible! Praying for his family and friends at this difficult time
  • @fredcostas1945
    I am tired of DA's & Judges who let these guys out with small sentences, so that they can become career criminals. There is NO end to this. The Laws are for the criminals. The courts are for the criminals, the DA's work for the criminals. No one is supporting victims. This CANNOT continue.
