to trial, and the jury
didn't like him. By
Texas law he was party
to a capital murder
and he was sentenced
to life in prison.
At the time of
writing ONE Bullet,
I remember thinking
that's crazy. That's
not right on fair.
About a year ago
I heard from Lagita
Woodard - Brandon's
cousin. Two times I've
offered to meet with
her, and two times
she's flaked out.
At the time of
working on ONE Bullet
and then the publication,
I was DONE after the
story published. I'd
spent three years
in the world of the
theatrics of violence,
the utter, authentic
grief of family &
loved ones. - Rights
