    Juan Jose Reynoso - Texas Death Row




    Facts of the Crime:

    On March 2, 2003, in Harris County, Reynoso approached a couple, pointed a gun at them and demanded their money. The man complied, but the woman told him that she did not have any money. Reynoso knocked down and shot in the head a homeless woman, Tonya Lynn Riedel, during a robbery behind a gas station. Reynoso requested the death penalty and the defense did not call any witnesses in the penalty phase. The prosecution said Reynoso was a suspect in eight other armed robberies.

    If he requested the death penalty, then why did he appeal his sentence? Does anyone know the status of his case?

    Reynosa is not even half way through his state and federal appeals. Could be 7-10 years before denial of cert.

    Is that the first Trump Trifecta we've seen on here?
    Don't ask questions, just consume product and then get excited for next products.

The root cause of this is there's no discipline in the homes, they don't go to school, you know, they live off the government, no personal accountability, and they just beat people up for no reason, and it's disgusting." - Former Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters
