Condemned Houston man loses Supreme Court appeal
HOUSTON
The high court Monday refused to review the case of 30-year-old
Antonio Lee Williams.
Williams already was a three-times-convicted drug dealer when he
was arrested for the August 2006 shooting deaths of 18-year-old
Vincent Williams and 22-year-old Yolanda Styles. The cousins -- both
Katrina evacuees -- had settled in Dallas and were in Houston
visiting Styles' mother when they were fatally shot at an apartment
complex where many displaced Louisiana residents moved.
Evidence showed Williams was linked to at least three other
slayings around the same time. Two of those victims also were
Katrina refugees.
Williams doesn't have an execution date.
