SAN ANTONIO -- It took a Bexar County jury just a few hours Friday night to convict 33-year-old James Morrison of capital murder in the 2009 shooting deaths of Laura and Krystle Moten.
Morrison, 34, could face the death penalty.
"We want him to die." Marjorie Moten-Suggs told KENS 5 moments after the verdict was read. She said he killed her sister and niece in the murder.
Morrison was found guilty of killing Krystle Moten and Laura Moten during a fight on April 18, 2009 at the Saddlewood Apartments, 2554 NE Loop 410.
Morrison also shot his pregnant girlfriend, Candice Moten. She was in a coma for two weeks afterward and lost her unborn child.
Morrison did not face charges for killing the unborn child.
The punishment phase is scheduled to begin Monday at 9 a.m.
"The jury system works," said prosecutor Jan Ischy. "They went back there, they looked at the evidence, looked at the facts and came up with the truth."
