SPRING, TX (KTRK) -- The uncle charged with murdering six of his family members inside a spring home faces a judge today.

Ronald Lee Haskell aces multiple capital murder charges. Police say he disguised himself as a delivery man when he went to the Stay family home back in June.

He allegedly forced his way inside the house, then shot seven of the family members execution-style because the Stay family wouldn't tell him where his ex-wife was located.

Only one member of the family - 15-year-old Cassidy Stay -- survived.
