If you've ever wondered WTH was a murdering father/husband thinking, this one shares his cold, callous story.
<snip>
He had to kill her, he said.
Terri Sanvicente, 40, had won primary custody of all three of the couple's children at trial a few weeks earlier.
Jurors ordered that Jason Ray Bouchard's visits be supervised, in part because of the sexual assault allegations by his daughter that he emphatically denies.
Bouchard who now faces capital murder charges in the Harris County Jail said Sunday that he would not have his children, ages 3, 6 and 8, raised by a woman he believed was brainwashing them into thinking their father was a bad man. Worse yet, he worried that Sanvicente might take off with their kids.
So on the night of Dec. 23, Bouchard said, he went to a Spring-area Walmart to buy a crowbar.
Around 5 the following morning, Christmas Eve, Bouchard put on jeans and a grey hooded sweatshirt and drove to Sanvicente's home in the 16400 block of Sky Blue near FM 1960 and Highway 529.
He pulled the hood over his head so he wouldn't get wet in the rain walked around the back of the house, poured a full gallon of gasoline on the window ledge near the back door and set it on fire.
So they wouldn't leave out the back door, said 36-year-old Bouchard, who served in the U.S. Army for six years.
