The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals has affirmed Ronald Lee Haskell’s conviction and death sentence on direct appeal. The court’s opinion addresses the claims raised in that appeal and concludes they do not warrant reversal. The ruling does not establish that every possible later legal proceeding has ended.
The case arose from a 2014 mass shooting in Harris County. This update focuses on the court’s ruling and omits identifying details about victims, including minors.
