GUILTY TX - Dr. Kendra Hatcher, 35, killed in parking garage, Dallas, 2 Sept 2015 - #4

Mother Of Dentist’s Killer Wants Son’s Life Spared: ‘I Don’t Think Any Mother Should See Her Son Die’ (with clip)

October 30, 2018

"...The most emotional witness for the defense was the defendant’s mother.

Vea Love told the jury her son had an unstable childhood that led to problems in school followed by a life of criminal behavior.

She told the jury the arrest of her son for murder has been devastating on her family.

She apologized for her son’s role in the 2015 death of Kendra Hatcher.

But she refused to acknowledge he was hired to kill the Dallas dentist.

Hatcher was shot in her uptown apartment building by a woman who was jealous of her.

“I do feel sorry about the death of the dentist and I do feel sorry about her family and that they have to go through something like this,” said Vea Love. “I don’t think that any mother should see her child die.”..."

Defense attorneys says those convicted of the worst Capital murders have no greater propensity for violence than those who committed any other type of murder.

Defense attorney says The Texas Prison System can control an inmate without resorting to a sentence of death.

Defense attorney says the law does not allow the death sentence for retribution. No Dallas county jury has sent a person to death row since 2013.

Defense attorney Paul Johnson says prosecutors did not prove that Kristopher Love is going to be dangerous even behind bars. “Are you really convinced that if he’s not put to death he’s going to be a continuing problem,” Johnson asked jurors.

Johnson says nobody will be happy with any verdict, but the jurors each have to live with their decision. Johnson is done. Glen Fitzmartin is up for the state's final argument. #KristopherLoveTrial

Fitzmartin: "If they want to argue the law, then put your seatbelts on. Because I'm about to fill you with it." #KristopherLoveTrial

Prosecutor Glen Fitzmartin going over Kristopher Love’s criminal history again with jurors. “Gunplay,” Fitzmartin says of many of the offenses, which started when Love was 17. His first arrest was for car theft. “Does the rest of society matter to him? No. It’s about him.”


L.P. Phillips‏ @lpphillips 1m1 minute ago
Fitzmartin: Time and time again people thought the crime Love was convicted of would be his last. And they would be wrong. Love only thinks of himself. #KristopherLoveTrial

Prosecutors say if sent to death row Kristopher Love would be locked up 23 hours a day and that say that is what would keep him from committing future violence
