Crime

Charles Dean Hood Escapes Death Once Again

UPDATE II (September 16, 2009) — Hood’s last appeal has been denied by the Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas. Comments to this post have been closed, and a new post is here to celebrate this fantastic news.

UPDATE — I just got off the phone with Julie, Tracie Lynn Wallace’s big sister. Her plane just landed in Dallas about an hour ago. Her flight from Michigan lifted off about 30-minutes before the court handed down its decision. To say that she is livid is a gross understatement. Once again, the scum murderer has more rights and gets more consideration from the criminal court system than the victims families (who are themselves victims, too)

________

Charles Dean Hood has cheated death once again. The man who undoubtedly and unquestioningly killed two people in Plano back in 1989 has had 6 execution dates.

Back in June, Hood was just minutes away from death when Gov. Perry ordered a 30-day reprieve just minutes before the death warrant was set to expire.

Hood was supposed to die tomorrow. But a few minutes ago, a representative of the Victim’s Services division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice called me to let me know that Hood had received another stay, and to cancel my trip to Huntsville tomorrow.

He also asked if I could get hold of Big Sis (the older sister of Hood’s victim Tracie Lynn Wallace), as he could not reach her. Unfortunately, her plane was supposed to leave Michigan en route for Texas at 3:00 this afternoon — I got her voice mail, but I’m afraid that she’s going to be very disappointed (and pissed off) when her plane lands.

Interestingly, Hood’s stay was not due to the alleged affair between the judge at Hood’s trial, Verla Sue Holland, and former Collin County district attorney Tom O’Connell.

Instead, Hood was granted a stay and will receive another hearing based upon jury instructions.

Jury instructions. 20 years later. And their nit picking about jury instructions.

The Collin County district attorney’s office had wanted to proceed with the execution, but the state attorney general’s office has filed a brief urging the allegations be investigated to protect the integrity of the criminal justice system.

I’m sorry, but Hood and his lawyers have already made a mockery of the criminal justice system, and it’s way too late to “protect the integrity” now.

  2. My heart goes out to Big Sis and her family.
    It’s unfortunate that the state is being manipulated by the sleazy Hood and his sleazier lawyers.
    I hope these “technical” matters are resolved, and the “technicality” of executing Hood can be resolved in short order.

  4. Utter fucking bullshit. If it is the issue I’m thinking of, the trial court failed to instruct the jury that they could consider mitigating evidence when deciding whether or not to impose the death penalty. Later, the law was changed requiring this. However, if I remember correctly, when Chas. D. Hood, Rocket Scientist, filed his own writ he did not allege it, therefore, the issue was waived. You only get one bite of the apple and when you are your own atty, you can not later claim ineffective assistance of counsel.

    I would like to read the last minute writ his attys filed last week asking the court to reconsider the issue, but I can’t find it.

    I have my own opn on what is going on here with this last minute grant, but I will keep it to myself. On the bright side, not that there is on, I believe if they prevail on the jury instruction issue, the remedy is a new sentencing hearing and another 10 years of appeals.

    Screw you, bitch. He murdered Tracey and Ron on November 1, 1989.

    And you didn’t tell us anything. You were yucking it up this morning because you believed the report of some stupid aussie paper that the district judge, who does not have the legal authority, granted a stay because of the dispositions. You don’t know jackshit about what is going on except that you think a double murderer rapist is a real cool guy.

  6. This is such a stupid issue. The jury heard witnesses’ testimony about how the poor murderer had learning disabilities, was neurotic, and emotionally immature. The jury would know (unless they were dumb as Anon5) that they could consider this when imposing death. Why the hell else would they have to sit through all that crap?

I pray that this shit head will be dead soon!! I know that your sister is looking down on you and is so proud that you are fighting for her memory and justice. I just got finished reading a bunch of the comments on the previous discussions on Tracie Lynn…I was under the assumption that this was a conservative blog…these freakin liberals are gonna drive this country to shit!!! I can tell you this much…Charles Hood WILL suffer the consequences of the crime he DID commit! How dare him quote passages from the Bible! I imagine he “found God” by order of his attorneys to look more innocent! I can promise you one thing…he’s lucky he is behind bars, because he is safe from the people who KNOW he IS GUILTY!!!!!!!! God bless you Robbie and BigSis!

  18. Ok, I haven’t been following any of this charlie hood stuff. but here’s my 2 cents anyway(when did the cent character disappear from keyboards? yeh I’m old)

    Death sentence good but speed it up, why should tax dollars feed dirt bags when kids need tuition money.
    Scum sucking lawyers would ditch the appeals bullshit (unless it was REAL) in a heart beat if there was a ceiling on what their fees were.
    Lets make a deal:
    1. murder 1 ; $10,ooo top fee for defense lawyers, $5000 for each appeal. Limit 2.
    2. liability for judges that let scumbags out on bail that is too low, if they commit another crime while awaiting trial.
    3. follow sheriff Joe’s example in Arizona. Treat the criminals like ….CRIMINALS
    stop the catch and release system with real punishment that is swift and sure, speed it up by making lawyers work more cases to keep their Ferrari.

  19. Holy Shit !!! Both sides out there !!! Most of you are too stupid to have an opinion. You can’t spell (that was mature … there instead of their, while in the same breath talking about intelligence). Now my sister didn’t get killed and I feel for you. However, there is corruption you Conservative voters put into office which should be checked and double checked. Sorry your academically challenged, murderer got a stay. It doesn’t give the people responsible for making these decisions the ability or permission to be losers and have scandal of their own. Give it time. He will die. It doesn’t give me much faith in the people running Collin County. The Republican hotbed of North Texas. Keep your Republican views and and vote that was as well. Next thing you know they will come into your lives as well. If you don’t think so … go read George Orwell’s “1984″ or Aldous Huxley’s “Brave New World.” These guys were scholars who wrote about out society in the early 20th century. It’s frightening to think you losers have an opnion !!!!

  20. here, here Tarkas!!!! I totally agree! And while we are at i, lets clear up the dockets on the civil courts as well…these frivolous lawsuits are getting more and more ridiculous. I say that if you have a trivial lawsuit and you lose, you have to pay the defendant what you were suing for, as well as putting $1000.00 in a slush fund! I’m sure if we put our minds together we can think of something great to use THAT money on.
    As for this continuing saga of this asshole Hood…I noticed some people were arguing that the cost of appeals is way up there when dealing with a capital punishment case…I say “accidentally” kill the guy, or let him “escape” to my property and I’ll protect my family from him…if you get my drift!!!!

  21. Ok say they have another sentencing phase…. I am going to find out if it is possible for me to be there….. I WANT MY SAY IN COURT ON BEHALF OF MY SISTER ! I think I am entitled to that…. I want the jury to listen to what I have to say, I will not let Tracie’s memory fade away nor justice not be served….

    Yes I vented…. I have every right to vent, and this is where I do it…. being able to vent my feelings here is a positive thing in my life. It’s with the support of you friends that help me get thru the rough times.

    Yeah some people come in here and run their mouths and yes it pisses me off as it pisses my friends off too….

    One of my best characteristics is PATIENCE! I have been told by close friends that I have the patience of a saint…… so my time will come and Hood’s will be gone…. I take pleasure in the fact that he sits in a cell 23 hrs a day…. that since the “texas 7″ escaped life on DR sucks more than it did with the “loss” of their privliges, The video that Mike Hall did made me absolutely sick…… he did the perp, what about the victims? oh no…. the fucking criminal has more rights than I do! wtf.

    One way or the other he will die in prison… either by lethal injection or natural causes…. the first is preferred…. he could live another 40-50 yrs….

    Well since I am already here and there isn’t anything I can do about what happened ……. I am just gonna hang out and chill….. got me a blonde bombshell cuz I intend to get bombed!!!!

    Having fun

    Yes, you do have a right to be there and you also have the right to give what they call victim impact evidence. However, what you can say at that time is limited because you will be in front of the jury and rules of evidence apply. But, you also have the right to address the judge directly right before he sentences Hood to death. You can pretty much let it all hang out and you can also slip in what ever you want to say to the piece of shit directly.

  28. Why thank you, anonymous…. now I want to know who do I ask? Do I ask the AG’s office? DA’s?

    Well, there is a long way to go. The TCCA hasn’t even ruled that he is entitled to a new sentencing trial. If they rule that he has the right to a retrial, they will send it back to the trial court. At that time, I would speak to the DA and tell them that you want to offer victim impact evidence. I’m sure they would want someone from the family to testify. The reason you weren’t called to testify during the 1989 trial was because victim impact evidence wasn’t admissible then. They have since changed the laws. The way your sister has been attacked through the years by people who don’t know her is disgraceful. So, it is important for someone to be there to let the jury and the media know that to this very day, Tracie is loved and missed.

  32. What a hateful blog. I feel I’m in the middle age when I read such things. I’m glad Hood got a stay, not that I’m sure he’s innocent, but when a state takes the risk to have dp, it must take all possible precautions to offer the suspect an honest trial. Law has nothing to do with personal hate, and the purpose is to make justice, not to avenge. What if the evidence against Hood were suddenly broken (and I can tell you it happens, I’ve seen many cases in my career, even after years)? Try to believe less and to think more.

    Posted by where does civilized world begin? | September 9, 2008, 11:54 pm
  33. Last minute stay after 20 years?
    This is why I don’t understand how anyone can support the death penalty. No justice has been served if Hood committed these crimes and ‘Big Sis’ along with other family members shouldn’t have to wait 20 years to then have to wait indefinitely thereafter.

    This guy was found guilty by your courts of law. Therefore he should be punished from the second that gavel hits the bench.

    My proposal of hard labour doesn’t seem all that bad now I guess?
    Get this guy, and other capital offenders, to work their fingers to the bone by paying a debt BACK to society.
    I’m considered to be liberal where you guys come from, but you support the idea of paying taxes to allow scum bags to sit on DP for 20 odd years, doing next to nothing other than get fat off your hard earned cash. I prefer the idea that they get out in the fields and do the work nobody else wants to do.
    Human rights? Sorry, you give that up when you commit such a crime.
    Not Guilty? Well OK, you’ve got a few bruises from picking rocks out the quarry with your bare hands but hey, your still alive.

    Any justice system will make mistakes but it’s a better idea to be able to right those mistakes rather than just pardoning someone 6 feet under.
    To think these criminals wait for justice in their warm cells, the victims families and friends wake every morning knowing that the person who killed their loved one is going to be lazing around all day, breathing the same air they do makes me livid.
    I cannot even begin to think what mental torture this is for someone like Big Sis. Talk about being in limbo.

    Supporters of the death penalty, especially in Texas, are as liberal as they come if they support THIS death penalty and you don’t even know it.

    Not that it should make anyone feel any better, BUT take solice in the fact that sitting on death row cannot be a pleasant experience. He isnt enjoying life. Let him burn in hell!

    I think we should should start petitioning the Governor to stop this slime from having contact with anyone except his immediate family and legal team.
    I could only imagine the drooling scumpals wetting their knickers over hearing he wasnt getting juiced today.
    Probably start getting sacks of sicophantic (?) mail now as they idolise him more than ever.
    I’d love to be a fly on the wall when the warden informs him of the joyous news that he’s no longer allowed to recieve scumpal letters.
    Then he can sit all alone in his box with nothing to do but count the days till its needle time.

    I tried to explain as clearly as possible how they idolise him and that he has quite a following on the internet.
    PTO has a topic running into many pages which has some great examples of how his decipals pander to him.
    I copied a few of the more stomach churning ones to include in the email.
    Anyone with the slightest shred of compassion for the victims can see how wrong it is allowing Hood to have any kind of life when they have none.

  50. And there you see what the thug lovers are really like:

    They believe anyone who has used drugs or had a past drug problem deserves to be murdered.

    They believe anyone who tries to help people, give them a place to live, finds them a job with the understanding that they will try to better themselves like Williamson did for Hood deserves to be murdered.

  51. The reason you weren’t called to testify during the 1989 trial was because victim impact evidence wasn’t admissible then. They have since changed the laws.

    I’m not sure if victim impact evidence would be admissible in a resentencing if it wasn’t allowed back at the original sentencing. I don’t know one way or the other – just suspect it might not be admissible. It would surely be a rich issue for appeal.

    …his immediate family members, foot even a portion of the legal fees

    You need to be taken out back and have your ass kicked for even suggesting this. Since when are innocent people responsible for another adult’s criminal behavior?

    Look up “corruption of blood”. Unconstitutional.

    Uh, no. The ex post facto clause only prohibits the retroactive application of new rules of evidence that lower the state’s burden of proof at trial. Since, victim impact evidence does not reduce the burden of proof, it is admissible. And, it is a rather settled issue of law.

    You need to be taken out back and have your ass kicked for even suggesting this. Since when are innocent people responsible for another adult’s criminal behavior?

    When they come here and lie about the facts and procedures of cases and threaten people. And, there is no right to counsel beyond state appeals. Therefore, there is no right to expect the taxpayer to pay for it. If they really believe their murdering family member is innocent, let them put their money where there mouth is.

  54. When they come here and lie about the facts and procedures of cases and threaten people. And, there is no right to counsel beyond state appeals. Therefore, there is no right to expect the taxpayer to pay for it. If they really believe their murdering family member is innocent, let them put their money where there mouth is. And frankly, you are the one who needs their ass kicked.

    Anyone “coming here and lying about the facts” isn’t costing the taxpayers or the legal system a dime. As far as I know, Hood’s family and supporters aren’t in court tying up resources – he and his lawyers are.

  55. ex post facto clause only prohibits the retroactive application of new rules of evidence that lower the state’s burden of proof at trial

    Got it. I thought we were talking about a statement before a sentence is imposed. I understand now that we’re talking about a post-sentencing “get it off your chest” statement that can’t possibly affect the sentence.

    That being the case, I see no reason why it wouldn’t be allowed.

    And dude, I don’t care one way or the other. I just thought it might be an issue if it was pre-sentencing.

    “After the sentence has been pronounced, victims and survivors have the right to make an oral statement to the court. The statement will not have an effect on the sentence because the sentence has already been determined. However, people who have exercised this “right to be heard” have described a sense of closure at being able to tell the court, often in the presence of the defendant, what the consequences of the criminal act have been.”

    Idiot.

    Yes, you do have a right to be there and you also have the right to give what they call victim impact evidence. However, what you can say at that time is limited because you will be in front of the jury and rules of evidence apply. But, you also have the right to address the judge directly right before he sentences Hood to death. You can pretty much let it all hang out and you can also slip in what ever you want to say to the piece of shit directly. Left by Anonymous on September 9th, 2008 at 10:05 pm

    Mosley v. State, 983 S.W.2d 249, 262 (Tex. Crim. App. 1998) held that victim impact evidence was admissible as rebuttal when the defendant introduces the mitigation special issue.

Ultimately it is the disgraceful personal and professional conflict of an affair between a Judge and Prosecutor which has defiled the integrity of a court of law and enabled Hood to exploit the system.

My point being that the criminal wont care one bit about what we say he has to pay–he is in prison, on death row, etc. However, if you bring his family into it, well, thats a whole different story! And whats wrong with making them pay for their defense? If you commit a crime, do you not have to pay for your defense? If you didnt have the money to do this, would your family not step in & offer to help? Come on…..lets not be so agressive. You are entitled to your opinion, and I am open to discussing it with you because I am an intelligent person.

OKAY….I haven’t been out here for a few days…… but it is upsetting to me that some shit for brains has the fucking audacity to call my sister a coke whore…. let me get the record straight for you butt fuck… my sister maybe at one time was using drugs… her drug screen came up clean… she was on probation for her activities that involved drugs… I never said she was a saint and WE ALL HAVE SKELETONS in our pasts… so unless you are God…. shut the fuck up cuz you got no reason to throw stones or insults around….

    Just know this… when another date is set for scum bucket I will be there, i will continue until he is dead…. I have no intention of letting him try and get his sentence commuted to life which is what he is trying for….. I will be allowed to give my victim impact statement… that came right from the DA’s office…. so put that in your pipe and smoke it…

    off to make dinner…..

    God I so hope not.he has been a pain on the justice system for so long.

    Hopefully they will set a new date soon and the stay wont be a long one.

    They could commute his sentence to life without parole, I have to keep all factors and possibilties in mind, as much as I pray he doesn’t get his sentence commuted to life. Why should his family have the opportunity to visit and still communicate when I cannot with my sister………

    I will continue to fight for justice on my sister and Rons behalf, they lost their voices along time ago, so I make it my fight…. and I hate to lose! Writing the Governor would help, inindate his office with requests to put hood down. It’s sickening that he is made a celebrity and nothing about the victim or the victims family….. Mike Hall is a prime example of it with his video about the “last or longest goodbye”

I believe that the resentencing hearing will still return a punishment of death… and yes here goes the appeals AGAIN I can only pray that he is denied his requests. And the execution is completed…. then i never have to worry about him taking another breath.

  83. Unfortunately, I lost my faith in the belief that some crimes are so heinous that the perpetrator will never be released when a few years back the feds paroled a guy who tortured and murdered two border agents.

    And it almost happened again in 1995 when they were going to parole another federal cop killer. The parole was stopped at the last minute, the defense appealed, the federal court ordered another parole hearing. They again granted parole, the AG appealed and lost and a new parole date was set. It was just luck that shortly before he was due to be released, someone on the internet noticed that the correct parole procedure was never followed and notified the FOP and his parole was canceled. It’s a constant battle. Time goes by. People forget. Someone always has to be vigilant.

  84. Big Sis:

    An idea. One that I would seriously consider if someone killed a relative of mine. It would have to be done correctly to avoid a solicitation charge, but I’m pretty confident it could be done somehow.

    How about an “inmate bereavement fund” funded by donors? The fund would be set up to deposit ‘x’ dollars into the commissary accounts of each and every prisoner on his cell block if he happened to die for any reason. The purpose of the fund would be to help cheer up his fellow inmates after the tragic loss of their close friend and fellow inmate.

    Just an idea.

    I’d donate. Contrary to what some might assume from my posts, I do think this guy richly deserves to die. But as in all capital cases, I’m not willing to toss the Constitution to see that happen. I hope it goes your way in the end. It might take a resentencing hearing or even a new trial for that to happen.

    It is clear to me that you are young. Probably high school, possibly younger. I don’t care. I am assuming you are American, but that might be foolish on my part.

    In America, adults are responsible for their own behavior. As much as we’d like to hold parents liable for the delinquent acts of their mis-raised children, that’s not the law: adult children are responsible for their own actions.

    You will see, of course, that there MUST be some age at which children cease to be children in the eyes of the law. So the only question is “when does that happen?”

    Most states in America have answered that. The age is 18. At that age, a child is free to leave the home – and the parents are no longer liable for his (her) actions.

    What you propose is a changing of the rules “in the middle of the game”.

    Basic fairness in any game, whether it’s the justice system or “just life” demands that the rules be available BEFORE the game starts and before the referees start making calls.

    The fact that a family could, or might, or should, or wants to – help with legal fees DOES NOT MEAN THEY MUST.

    Yeah, my “plan for solicitation” is an attempt to dispense justice in an extra-legal kind of way. I’m all about following the rules, even if doing it in a way that defies the intent, but not the letter of the law, of the (generally useless) legislature.

    As far as the constitution goes…

    If Hood’s judge and prosecutor were boinking, then there’s a system-reset as far as I’m concerned. There is a black-letter Texas constitutional prohibition on judges makin’ it with prosecutors. If that happened (recent depositions say it did) then Hood’s constitutional rights were violated. See the Texas Constitution at Article 5, Section 11: http://tlo2.tlc.state.tx.us/txconst/sections/cn000500-001100.html

    Once again, I think that based on what I’ve seen, he’s guilty as hell. But the integrity of the system, and MY CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS, are more important than perceived justice for a girl that’s been dead for 20 years.

    Yup, I said it: My rights (and yours) trump those of a dead person. MY RIGHTS ARE MORE IMPORTANT than making a dead girl’s family happy.

    The “process” is here for my benefit and yours. Kinda sucky in this case but constitutional rights are more important than “bending” them for your benefit.

    At one time in this country, if you killed someone who opposed the constitution you weren’t a criminal, your were called a patriot.

  111. Bigsis I have been reading this link for last 3-4 months and my heart goes out to you and your family. I was a paramedic for 15 years and seen suffering like your family has gone through first hand. I have read many things on your sisters case….

    Charles Hood is guilty, period. His voice heard on the phone to the police. He is driving the mans car with his credit cards. Hoods fingerprints on the closet door and tape where your sister was found.

    YES, he will walk……13 steps to the Texas Death chamber.

    I am 100% pro death penalty.

    But people, including bigsis. What Matt is saying is that the living peoples rights MUST over rule those of the dead. You can’t bring back the dead, but can save those still alive. Everyone in here or reading this can not say they want an INNOCENT person executed. If you do, then NEVER be on a jury ever…please. You are not looking for justice. The law is to protect everyones rights…mine, robbies, bigsis, matts, and yes…even scum like Hood. But the laws DO save some REALLY INNOCENT people, but in the long run, won’t help Hood.

    Charles Hood in NOT INNOCENT by any means. and bigsis….seen one thing that you wrote that i disagree with, when his time comes….you will wave bye..bye to him.

    I would give that worthless shit the BIG FINGER hun and a big smile.

    take care.

  112. What Matt is saying is that the living peoples rights MUST over rule those of the dead.

    Oh, brother! No, what Matt is doing is his regularly scheduled b.s. routine. He is not qualified to determine what rights, if any, were violated and what is the legal remedy. You can’t bring back the dead but you can’t make up your own interpretations of laws to give the guilty a pass and give people the false impression that you know what you are talking about. The execution was stayed because the defense filed a motion asking the court to consider a jury instruction issue. The court previously refused to do so because Hood never raised the issue when he was required to do so and under the law the issue is waived. He was acting as his own lawyer at the time and many people in the defense bar felt it was unfair to penalize him for being a narcissistic sociopath who thought and continues to think he knows more than his attys — sort of like Matt.

  113. Just curious

    When Charles is strapped to the gurney and if he doesn’t make eye contact with Big Sis.

    Is Big Sis going to be able to get his attention somehow? Maybe by taping on the window or some other way? Or Is their a certain procedure that would not allow that?

  114. Just wanted to correct one thing that was said. He is not just trying to get the death sentence reversed, he is trying to be re tried and found not guilty. Just saying.

  115. No way will he be found not guity all the evidence says he did the murders.
    I cant see him getting a new trial.Maybe a new sentencing hearing but I think it will return the death sentence once again.

    I just feel so sorry for big sis and Ron for all the crap they are having to go through

  116. The chances of Hood ever being found not guilty is zero to none.

  117. All the arguments that Hood and his groupies post about evidence showing he is innocent are garbage. Hood cherry picks this crap from his briefs and transcripts and feeds it to his groupies. He doesn’t tell them why it was deemed inadmissible or that the jury heard it and rejected it by their guilty verdict.

    Hope he’ll get out soon and enjoy a peaceful life, and we’ll fight for that and win against you all blood-thirsty pigs. Wish I could see your faces when it finally happens! He’ll always find christian people to help him to rebuild his life when he’s out, he’ll never be alone. May God help him sofar :)

    You’re the one nuts and insane. The sniveling coward shot Tracie Wallace in her sleep and Ron Williamson in the back of the head. It is fitting that the coward Hood will now be forced to confront the family of his victims before he is sent to hell. Bet he cries like a pussy.

  128. Anonymous (Whoever you are – probably three different people):

    Yeah, my “plan for solicitation” is an attempt to dispense justice in an extra-legal kind of way. I’m all about following the rules, even if doing it in a way that defies the intent, but not the letter of the law, of the (generally useless) legislature.

    As far as the constitution goes…

    If Hood’s judge and prosecutor were boinking, then there’s a system-reset as far as I’m concerned. There is a black-letter Texas constitutional prohibition on judges makin’ it with prosecutors. If that happened (recent depositions say it did) then Hood’s constitutional rights were violated. See the Texas Constitution at Article 5, Section 11: http://tlo2.tlc.state.tx.us/txconst/sections/cn000500-001100.html

    Once again, I think that based on what I’ve seen, he’s guilty as hell. But the integrity of the system, and MY CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS, are more important than perceived justice for a girl that’s been dead for 20 years.

    Yup, I said it: My rights (and yours) trump those of a dead person. MY RIGHTS ARE MORE IMPORTANT than making a dead girl’s family happy.

    Call me an asshole.

    After reading all of the above, I just wanted to say thank you. While this may not be the only rational post I’ve seen here I don’t recall another one. We must all accept that the rules and guidelines are put inplace for all of us to follow. If we choose not to then we are wrong. If we disagree with the laws, rules and guidelines then we should work to change them and not simply choose to ignore them.

    We must all support the system in place or we must all accept that we too are at risk of not being treated to the letter of the law. We should not choose to follow the rules in one case and not another simply because if suits our needs at the moment. A constitution whether that of the state of Texas or that of the US must apply to all or none.

    I believe our criminal laws are intended to protect the innocent/society in general and to punish the guilty. I do not however believe they are there for the express benefit of the families of victims. This can often be a side benefit but is not the original intent of most laws. While family members often are victimized they are not the primary victim and not addressed in criminal law. Often they are addressed in tort law but not so much in criminal law.

    There are many valid reasons for this.

    While I can never fully understand the depth of loss for a family member and pray I never do, I also can’t support ignoring a law out of convenience. For the record I am pro DP however should this guy not get his date for execution it is not the fault of the system or even the defense lawyers. In this case we have a judge and a prosecuter to blame. They either did or should have know better.

    You think a post from a guy who has consistently misstated the law and attacked the family of the victims is rational? Bwahhhhhh! Neither you nor the other noobs have any idea of what the appellate issues are in this case or the complexity of those issues. Merely stating a layman’s opinion based on a layman’s understanding of the law is not due process. And pretending to empathizes with the family of the victims and in the same breath telling them to suck it up, shows your true colors.

  145. I hope not.
    I want his last moments on earth to be a testament to justice and punishment, for the horrible crimes he committed.
    His fate needs to be one of judicial purpose, not an illegal act.
    Hood needs to know why he is being punished, and feel the full measure of disdain society has for his actions. He needs to feel the terror of the process, and know what is happening, just as he planned and executed his terrible acts upon others, who were not deserving of their fate.
    Unlike him.

  146. Wow, Lots going on since my last stop in here. Mr. Hood got another stay huh? Actually I’m keeping up on this case but don’t get a chance to come in here too much. How are you Big Sis?? Robbie?? I haven’t had the pleasure of talking to our mutual friend lately so I hope that you are keeping up with her. LOL If you talk to her, Please ask her to call me because I know she is still very ill and sometimes does not answer the phone. Thanks.
    Well for the record I’m surprised that he got a stay for the reason he got it and not for the reason they first asked for it. I think that I predicted the stay for the affair that was going on and not for the Jury Instructions, but that is an issue also. That guy Glenn up there was right, they questioned something so they are going to look into it and that is the right thing to do.
    We can’t kill someone simply because the date is set without first making sure that all the loose ends are tied up and there are not any questions about him having a fair trial. Yes, All this should have been done years ago but it wasn’t so now they will struggle with these 20 year old questions and try to figure them out.
    I read that he is requesting a new trial and may even get one. Not sure that will happen but pretty sure he will be afforded a new sentencing phase because of the instructions in his first trial. One would think that he would get a new trial because of the affair during his first one also as that concerns me more than the instructions do although those two factors should both be considered.
    Well night all time to get out of here. I’ll check back soon to read up on this interesting story as well as follow it through my own resourses.

    Posted by Tom Workman | September 29, 2008, 1:04 am
  147. Well Well Well…. look who popped in! I have to say that whatever they decide I will have my say in court, I want no loose ends, and yes they should have acted on this sooner, but as you all know I am a patient woman and time is on my side, so is freedom, neither that are really on Deans side…. If they decide a new sentencing phase, i will have my say with victim impact statements since they are allowed now, I want no one to forget Tracie, or Ron.

    All i can do for now is sit and wait, just take it one day at a time. The serenity prayer says it all:

    God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things i can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

  151. Jules — if it gives you any measure of satisfaction, at least some of Charlies’ buddies on death row are being taken from him over the next six weeks (on two days ago, one tonight, and 10 more over the next 5 weeks).

    Charles might start getting a little lonely on DR. Although, I hear he’s not even that well liked or regarded by other murdering and raping scumbags.

    And those people aren’t usually too particular or choosy about their friends. And even they hate Hood.

Actually there will be no new trial it will not go to trial because of the way that the State of Texas handled this case and which they do on every person that is granted a new trial on Death Row they enter a plea with them saying they will not do a new trial if they agree to life. Which Charles will take. At the time he was sentenced there was life and the death penalty no life without the possibility of parole so he will only receive 20 years and he has already served almost 19 so he will be released in about a year.

    You suck it up! Are you just stupid, a liar, or both? His conviction has not been overturned. His case has been remanded to the trial court for the judge to prepare a memorandum of findings, due in 60 days, on why Hood did not pursue the conflict of interest issue for 20 years. The legal maxim is use it or lose it. This does not bode well for Hood.

    One, Texas retries murderers all the time. If they can prove their case and obtain a death sentence, they will retry it. Plea bargains are offered only if there is a problem of proof. There is no problem of proof in the Hood case. The evidence of his guilt is overwhelming.

    Two, multiple victims equals multiple consecutive sentences. And the sentence for each count of first degree murder is 40 years X two = 80 years. However, see above. There would never be a reason to plea bargain this case. Again, the evidence of Hood’s guilt is overwhelming.

    And last but not least: Hood has not been granted a new trial because his conviction has not been overturned.

  171. Well just keep reading all that is on the internet. I have read the transcript from his attorney. He is getting a new trial. The trial court made there decision.

    Well, you just keep showing us how dumb you are. It’s not like we expect more from you. Hood’s conviction has not been reversed. And the trial court does not have the power to order a new trial.

    The DA objected to a special master instead of a judge conducting the hearings. The TCAA ruled in the state’s favor and sent the case back to the trial court for the hearings to be heard by a judge.

  191. Hi Julie

    Well today’s hearing went about as expected.

    We filed a State’s reply yesterday and many exhibits, including your affidavit.

    They filed some pleadings today with, of course, a very different view.

    The judge is going to review what the parties have filed, allow for both side to determine whether any more information needs to be filed, and decide whether any witnesses will need to testify. He is hoping to have enough information to make a ruling and findings not long after that.

    It is progress, although I am sure too slow for you.

    Well, have a great weekend, and I’ll let you know when something new happens.

    Posted by big sis | February 23, 2009, 8:29 am

  193. You all know what?…. That whiny little bitch has bitched and whined about jury instruction since the Day he was sentenced to die… He thinks whining about his childhood will sway the jury to give him life… what a fucking surprise thats going to be…. it doesn’t change the fact that he was found GUILTY of murdering my sister Tracie and Ron….

    Im not sure when the judge will make his decision, I hope sooner than later but whats the fucking hurry… it’s been 19 yrs!

    It has been an unusual case… wonder if anybody else has filed more appeals than him. I’m sure somebody will look that up…. LOL..

    I guess I needed to say what I said… It just hit me funny when I read the continued saga…

    I will let you know when I hear of anything that I can share.

  195. Hi Big Sis

    Hope you are holding up ok. I can’t understand why he has been allowed so many appeals, I thought they would have run out by now or has he been given a new set of appeals cos of the situation with the trial judge and the prosecutor? Little confused on how that works. All I know is that once appeals have run out a potential execution date is set. Is that correct? Interesting how he talks about his “troubled” childhood. Did his other siblings experience the same problem? I assume they are not behind bars or living the life of a criminal. Just food for thought.

    Take care x

    Posted by Catherine from NZ | March 4, 2009, 9:37 pm
  196. It’s just baffleing that his appeals continue… yes once a date is set all the appeals are supposed to be done. We will see what happens next its just a wait and see game…. I did file an afidavit though about how this whole business affects me and my family.

    No not all of his family are losers, close but not quite!

    Posted by big sis | March 5, 2009, 3:09 pm
  197. big …you don’t know a damn thing about his family. Why, would you say such a thing as…close but not quite? Like almost all of them are losers….where do you get your information?
    Get a life. You are so wrong.

    Posted by anon5 | March 22, 2009, 1:04 am
  198. Actually, Big Sis knows quite a lot about Hood’s family as do others who routinely read this blog.

    You either think:

    1. Hood, the double murderer, double rapist, is a winner, or

    2. You are unable to comprehend simple written English.

    I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and say you are unable to comprehend simple written English.

    Last, but not least, you get an effin’ life! How dare you criticize her! She is a victim here. You, on the other hand, are nothing but a scumpal.

    Posted by Anonymous | March 22, 2009, 2:37 pm
  199. I was not talking about what Hood is or what he has or has not done…my statement concerned his family only and what she said about them….they are no more responsible for him than …she is responsible for her sister…ok.??? simple english
    She has no right to say any member of his family is a loser …she does not know any of them….victim has nothing to do with it. So, evidently you do not comprehend simple written English.

    None of his family members are anything like him….bash him all you want but stop bashing people you do not know.

    Posted by anon5 | March 22, 2009, 4:45 pm
  200. Well lets see….. Deans brother James left threatening posts here…. So don’t go talking your shit, apples don’t fall far from the tree.

    So lets see….
    Daddy…. LOSER DID THE ABUSE…
    Momma … LOSER PUT UP WITH THE ABUSE
    JAMES…. LOSER…. THREATENS PEOPLE

    The only family member that came to his execution date in June was his brother James I do believe….

    I can say anything I want to say.. And Im glad i don’t know them… I wouldn’t want to be associated with trash… You’re either part of the family, know the family, or a scumpal that is talking out their ass as usual.

    Deans time is running out…. and I will be there, where will you be? Sitting at home, standing outside with the rest of the “scumpals”?
    Doesn’t really matter, cuz you don’t matter, the only thing that does matter is that Dean pays for his acts of murder….

    Posted by BIG SIS | March 22, 2009, 10:54 pm
  201. None of his family members are anything like him….bash him all you want but stop bashing people you do not know.

    Besides physical abuse, his dad did sexually abuse his daughters for years while mom looked the other way. That’s part of the court record. And the brother has threatened people here.

    Posted by Anonymous | March 23, 2009, 9:25 am
  202. Yes, you can say anything you want to say…it is called freedom of speech . Now you can thank James for fighting for your rights during Desert Storm …in the US Army. Not a loser in my book. I hate it when people bash the military veterans. He was not the only family member at the execution date ….that is how much you know.

    I do wonder what kind of woman moves in with 2 men that she barely knows….and works in the sleazy Wrangler night club in Texas.

    Think that one over.

    Posted by anon5 | March 23, 2009, 5:13 pm
    • do understand your loss, Tracie your sister I knew very well, a side of her your family probably didn’t know. I’m “NOT” going to sling hurtful comments back – n – forth, but where were you when your sister was sniffing (snorting) cocaine all the time (even being arrested for it in Dallas), or giving her body to a bunch of old men in the V.I.P room for drugs and money? Where were you? Because all the time I knew her, you were nowhere to be found.
      these are Deans own words!!!!!

      Posted by big sis | July 21, 2009, 11:56 am
  203. Yeap ! So there! Take that and shove it in you pie hole!

    Posted by big sis | March 23, 2009, 5:16 pm
  204. Hmmm 2 men she barely knows? Dean wrote in his letters to me that he knew my sister very well….. that he liked her and was there for her as a friend…. so I don’t know how you can say she barely knew them if infact he knew her so well… or is he LIEING AGAIN.

    Don’t forget Dean worked at that “sleazy Wrangler club” does that make any difference, or is it because she worked in the club as a dancer? Does that make him any better? NO IT DOES NOT.

    I am not BASHING our Military personell who protect our freedom, that is why we can have this blog, this thread…. its called freedom of speach. I am only stateing fact when I say James threatened Robbie here on one of these threads, thats why he lost his job, as he sent it from his work…. what a stupid fuck….. yes he is a loser….

    So now tell me what ya got to say about that you blooming or shall I say you bloomed idiot….

    Posted by BIG SIS | March 23, 2009, 8:28 pm

    • Big Sis, things will be better.
      A poem.

      On Friendship
      Kahlil Gibran
      Your friend is your needs answered.
      He is your field which you sow with love and reap with thanksgiving.
      And he is your board and your fireside.
      For you come to him with your hunger, and you seek him for peace.

      When your friend speaks his mind you fear not the “nay” in your own mind, nor do you withhold the “ay.”
      And when he is silent your heart ceases not to listen to his heart;
      For without words, in friendship, all thoughts, all desires, all expectations are born and shared, with joy that is unacclaimed.
      When you part from your friend, you grieve not;
      For that which you love most in him may be clearer in his absence, as the mountain to the climber is clearer from the plain.
      And let there be no purpose in friendship save the deepening of the spirit.
      For love that seeks aught but the disclosure of its own mystery is not love but a net cast forth: and only the unprofitable is caught.

      And let your best be for your friend.
      If he must know the ebb of your tide, let him know its flood also.
      For what is your friend that you should seek him with hours to kill?
      Seek him always with hours to live.
      For it is his to fill your need, but not your emptiness.
      And in the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures.
      For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.

      Best wishes, from a web buddy.

  223. Judge says romance-bias claim can be reviewed

    By MICHAEL GRACZYK Associated Press Writer © 2009 The Associated Press
    May 1, 2009, 6:14PM

    HOUSTON — A state district judge ruled Friday that a condemned Texas
    inmate’s claim of judicial bias during his trial can be reviewed on
    its merits.

    State District Judge Greg Brewer, in suburban Dallas’ Collin County,
    said lawyers for Charles Hood didn’t deliberately wait until the
    prisoner’s execution was imminent when they released information
    about a romantic relationship involving the prosecutor and trial judge.

    Brewer said defense lawyers weren’t at fault because former Collin
    County District Attorney Tom O’Connell and Hood’s now-retired trial
    judge, Verla Sue Holland, “took deliberate measures to ensure that
    their affair would remain secret.”

    The day before his scheduled execution in September, Hood won a
    reprieve from the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals, where Holland
    served as a judge in the late 1990s.

    Hood’s lawyers have asked the state’s highest criminal court to grant
    him a new trial, insisting his right to an impartial trial was violated.

    A former Collin County assistant prosecutor last June filed an
    affidavit saying the affair involving the judge and prosecutor was
    “common knowledge” from at least 1987 until about 1993. The time
    included Hood’s trial.

    As the September execution date neared, attorneys won a court order
    forcing Holland and O’Connell to be questioned under oath. In
    depositions, the pair acknowledged they’d had a years-long affair.

    “Judge Holland and Mr. O’Connell did not abide by their ethical and
    constitutional duties to disclose the fundamental conflict caused by
    their relationship,” Brewer said, adding that O’Connell misled Hood’s
    attorneys and Holland resisted their “investigative efforts.”

    Brewer also said state attorneys could not argue that time deadlines
    for appeals were violated in Hood’s case because their hands were
    “unclean.”

    “It is the appearance of partiality that is damaging to the public’s
    confidence in the integrity of the judicial process,” he said.
    Attorneys for Holland and O’Connell have declined to discuss the
    case, citing a gag order.

    Brewer’s findings, released Friday, now go to the appeals court,
    where the judges there can either accept or reject them.
    Hood, 39, is a former bouncer at a topless club who was 20 when he
    was arrested in Indiana for the fatal shootings of Tracie Lynn
    Wallace, 26, an ex-dancer, and her boyfriend, Ronald Williamson, 46,
    at Williamson’s home in Plano in 1989.

    Hood has maintained his innocence. He was driving Williamson’s
    $70,000 Cadillac at the time of his arrest. Evidence against him
    included his fingerprints at the murder scene. Hood has said he had
    permission to drive the car and his fingerprints were at the house
    because he had been living there.

  224. Unbeleivable Big Sis, I really feel sorry for you hafing to spread around all your venom. I tried to be nice to you but now you just crossed a line. Here you go talking about things you have no idea about like my husband. Saying he lost his job, that he threatened Robbie, and that James was the only one at Deans blocked execution. Really where do you come up with this. All lies. I would like to know what you do for a living having all this free time on your hands. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree look in the mirror sister you are trying to ride the coat tail of your sisters horrible murder. You and Robbie are trying to get a book deal off this website and to anyone that knows Dean or his family I encourage you DO NOT write on this site anymore as you are only putting money in the pockets of nieve people. You know nothing of my husband or his family. If people beleived everything they heard and the apple doesn’t fall to far from the tree then I guess that would make you a stripper and a drug user and basically a glorified prostitute. You know what the bible says “The wicked will not inherit the kingdom” I feel sorry for what you have let your life become and will pray for your soul.

  225. He did threaten Robbie, you moron. I know plenty about your husband and his pos double murderer rapist brother. I know your father in law raped his daughters while their mother did nothing to protect them. What a family you married into!

    And you don’t seem to be much better than them, either. I’ve seen the lies you have written about Julie and Robbie and the lies you’ve written about the Matthews. The entire Hood family is scum.

    Your brother in law shot Tracie while she slept and Ron while his back was turned. Don’t ever turn your back on your husband after you’ve had an argument. You never know when he will stick a gun to your head and pull the trigger. And how many young girls has he raped? As you said, the apple doesn’t fall from the true.

    …you are only putting money in the pockets of nieve people.

    How naive does one have to be to spell naive nieve? LOL

  226. Hood has maintained his innocence. He was driving Williamson’s $70,000 Cadillac at the time of his arrest. Evidence against him included his fingerprints at the murder scene. Hood has said he had permission to drive the car and his fingerprints were at the house because he had been living there.

    Hood never had permission to drive that car let alone to drive it to Indiana. And it wasn’t just his fingerprints, it was his BLOODY FINGERPRINTS on the door to the room where Tracie’s body was found and on the trashbags he put over her body. Williamson had called 911 and Hood’s voice can be heard speaking in the background. When the police arrived only 3-4 minutes later, they find two people shot and Hood gone. Hood stole and used Williamson’s credit cards, stole his gold watch, pawned rings that Williamson had kept in his safe, and attempted to cash two company checks that he had stolen and forged Williamson’s signatures on.

    Maintain his innocence, my ass. As Hood’s own attys said about him: “I don’t think he told us a single truth other than his name.”

    There are plenty of issues for the Court to address with the trial court’s findings, so I am not really surprised that it is still pending.

  243. I actually think both the Defense Attorneys as well as the Anti Death penalty groups have done such a great job of “muddying” the waters on this issue. I know the 8th Amendment to the Constitution prohibits Cruel and unusual punishment. But I will NEVER agree that lethal injection is Cruel and unusual punishment. I also don’t feel that the founding fathers meant this to mean that a punishment should be painless. For the record I can live in a world that has the Death Penalty and a world that don’t. I just get upset at people that feel that their opinion is right and they have the moral high ground, and over the last 30 years this seems to be the anti death people.

    I also agree that in this case the Courts as well as the Governor have made a joke out of this process. This vermin should have been pushing up flowers a long time ago.

    Posted by Michael | July 16, 2009, 3:09 pm
  244. A very long time ago indeed…. it’s almost 20 yrs since the cowardly deed of murder was committed. The whole process has been a joke….. 7 execution dates! Now the courts have recessed for summer break…. more time, more time, more time….

    I hope he is enjoying the triple digit temps in his non air conditioned cell.

    As for pain and punishment…. its a no brainer…. They murder, rape, take loved ones away which is painful, but not to expect or whine about thier punishment is ridiculous. Do onto others as you would want others to do to you….

    • “A very long time ago indeed…. it’s almost 20 yrs since the cowardly deed of murder was committed. The whole process has been a joke….. 7 execution dates! Now the courts have recessed for summer break…. more time, more time, more time…. ”

      yes, its been turned into a joke by liberals. Big sis the following is NOT directed to you. Its just how I feel about this issue. I know in a constitutional Republic the minority is protected from the tyranny of the majority. I have no basic problem with this, as I am part of that minority in some issues. These protections are put into place to protect people’s basic human rights. In my opinion the death penalty is NOT a violation of someones civil rights, actually it can be argued that it “fixes” a civil rights violation, because Cold blooded murder is the ultimate violation of someones civil rights. What pisses me off though is statist Judges that “piss” on the rights of the majority. In this Death penalty issue this is whats happening. The people through their elected Representatives have caused to be made into law this sentence. The people have that right, and the right to NOT want these vermin out into society OR be feeding and housing them. SO this is my message to any and ALL of you anti DP people. If you want to stop this, get a Majority and change the laws through the legislative process and STOP using the Judicial Branch to thwart the will of the Majority.

    BIG sis, get over it, she isn’t coming back, get on with your pathetic life.

    Robbie, your opinions on something you know nothing about are way off base, go talk on one of your other blogs.

    Notoliberals, … I think that is all I need to say about you.

    For the rest of the people adding there comments, well you don’t know the facts of the case so why comment at all? Get your lazy assess out from in front of your computer and do something more useful with your time.

    Posted by ANON | July 17, 2009, 2:00 pm
    • Well since you know all of the “facts” would you be so kind as to post documented facts and give links to said “facts”. I am always open minded enough to admit when I am wrong, but you have to SHOW me I am wrong! But please show me credible facts not hyperbole.

      Here’s some advice for you, follow the same advice you so freely give others.
      Your comment is unsolicited and irrelevant, just as you are irrelevant to all of us here.

I went to see him, turns out he was a teen about 1/2 my size and ran to his father. His father and I spoke for a few mins, and his father told him to be careful next time.

    Posted by Anonymous | August 7, 2009, 6:11 pm
  279. Though Hood denies that he had a defense psychiatrist appointed, one did examine him and diagnosed him as having an anti-social personality and in the future was likely to act out his aggressions on other persons or property. The defense did not call him to testify.

    The state’s psychiatric expert testified that in the future, Hood would probably commit criminal acts of violence and therefore was a continuing threat to society. There was also testimony that he had an antisocial personality disorder, was a sociopath with little chance of rehabilitation, and would more likely than not pose a future danger to the public.

    Posted by Anonymous | August 7, 2009, 7:54 pm
  280. Jeez I wonder why they didn’t call the appointed defense psychiatrist!!!! It only would have collaborated what the states psychiatric expert testified to… No big surprise there.

    I can see no reason that his pathetic sociopathic ass should have any consideration in changing the penalty of death. He gave no consideration to the victims. If it had not been my sister Tracie and Ron it would have been somebody else…

    He will get what he dished out and that is a sentence of death. He can whine and cry all he wants about this that and the other thing but it does not change the evidence proving him guilty. Why should he be given any consideration. I am so sick of hearing about why he shouldn’t be given the death penalty….. fucking chicken shit asshole had to shoot Tracie in the head execution style while she slept and Ron in the back. The bullet that killed her went from behind her right ear and exited left temple…. The M.E. testified to that fact…..

  288. When the courts finish their recess, will they deal with the matter straight away?

  289. Hard to say if it will be dealt with the matter straight away. I hope so, but I wouldn’t count my chickens on it!

  290. …. Inside the criminal mind….
    “Criminals think differently from responsible people and choose to commit crimes. Crime resides within the person and is “caused” by the way he thinks, not by his environment.” Focusing on outside forces provides excuses.

    For those who think that the criminal is a victim…. are instead victimizers who freely chose their way of life.

    this is a very interesting book I have started to read, in hopes of better understanding what makes a criminal tick so to speak. The author is Stanton Samenow, Ph.D.

  291. Hi, Big Sis. I just wanted to offer you my best wishes. I have not read all the threads pertaining to your lovely sister Tracie and her friend Ron, but some of what I have read so far has made me sick.

    Please know that for every single jerk out there attempting to torment you and mock the victims, there are hundreds, if not thousands, of people who are behind you. I hope that justice will be served sometime soon so that this nightmare will finally end for you and your family. I further pray that, once justice is served, you and your family will find the level of peace you so richly deserve. Hopefully, the knowledge that justice has been served will allow all of you to more fully enjoy the many wonderful memories you so obviously hold of your sister.

    It is so touching and awe-inspiring to observe your faithfulness to Tracie, which you demonstrate by continuing in your role of protective older sis’ after all these years. I am so very, very sorry that you had to suffer so much due to losing her in such a manner.

    May Tracie and Ron rest in peace and may God hold them in the palm of His hand. God bless you and all of your family. Take good care.

  292. Thank you so very much for your kind words. With all the friends I have out here it has truely helped me find a healthy outlet for my anger, My friends are sympathetic, caring, and fearless. God blesses me everyday in so many ways.

    Not everyone believes that my faithfulness is true, some just think I am just plain psychotic about it, but it is out of love for her that I am. I will not let their voices be lost, they will remember, she is not just another victim…. she has a name, I will not let people forget it either. She and Ron will not be nameless.

    Posted by big sis | August 26, 2009, 2:21 pm
    • Big Sis,

      Sorry for my late reply. I just wanted to say that I am extremely supportive of your efforts to keep your sister Tracie’s and her friend Ron’s memories alive. That is exactly what I feel is most important in honoring any victim of a violent crime. We, as a society, owe them that. We should provide a voice for the voiceless. An additional duty we have, as a society, is to ensure that justice is served in response to their wrongful deaths.

      I am grateful to you for speaking out on behalf of your sister. I am also grateful that one of Ron’s good friends posted on one of these threads, testifying on behalf of Ron’s good character. I wish that, rather than showing photos of the killers in news reports, MORE photos of the victims would be shown for the express purpose of providing to the public a face/human identity to attach to the victim’s name.

      No victim should ever be thought of “just another victim.” All victims have names, faces, preferences, personality quirks, strengths, weaknesses — the entire gamut of what makes us human. Their murderers may have chosen to have treated them as less than human, but we have a duty to remember them and to treasure their humanity.

      I hope this makes sense. I have felt this way as long as I can remember. I always had an inherent sense of the above since I was a child and began reading in the newspaper about crime.

      Finally, I want to encourage you to completely disregard anyone who ever tells you that you are “psychotic” in your faithfulness to your sister’s memory and human dignity. It is painfully apparent that it is your love for your sister that drives you. I admire you for your steadfast devotion to her. I just hope that this ordeal will be over soon so that you can finally relax some in your vigilence, thus allowing the healing process to continue without distractions and obstructions. I am also very glad to know that you have been able to release some of your pain and to find so much support through engaging in dialogue with your many friends. Please consider me as one of your online friends/supporters. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Take care.

  293. I have just spent the best part of a day reading every blog, my mind is now full of thoughts!

    I cannot believe anyone convicted as he has been is still sat on death row 20 years later, I don’t know whether I am pro or anti dp. I don’t know enough about it to comment.

    I admit I don’t know an awful lot about the US legal system but I think after reading all this I am going to try and research some more. I know its a lot tougher than our UK system.

    If anyone has any valuable comments to make or help me do some research with websites etc please let me know.

    Thoughts are with the victims of this heinous crime.

  296. Sorry to say No…. waiting for the courts to come back from summer recess….. and make a ruling.

    Thank you for asking….. Maybe some of my friends can help you research if you let them know what it is your wanting to research….

    • Big Sis,
      I saw her comment, but it was so open ended, I didn’t/don’t have the time.
      I think many, if not all, of her questions could be found in the comments on this thread, and the one that preceded it.
      Hang in there, gal. That needle is getting rustier by the day.

      • Assuming it is true, it’s not like they are in complete isolation 24/7, so opportunities will arise.

        And from what I have picked up over the years from various posts of scumpals, he’s not all that well liked by his fellow inmates.

  305. Hood doesn’t get along with people. He’s a pain in the ass to everyone. Including his attys and his scumpal/fiances. For no apparent reason, he will get angry at his girlies and refuse to communicate with them. It’s hilarious. It happens time and time again.

    Posted by Anonymous | September 12, 2009, 11:32 am
  306. Of course he doesn’t get along with people he is an antisocial sociopath! I know all to well of his “temper tantrums” As you know from previous threads, I wrote to him and for a while he wouldn’t write back, or he had one of his “buddies” write me…. when he found out it was me… boy was he “upset”. If he is such a pain in the ass to his attys you’d think they would do what they can to get it over with…. but then again he is a money maker no doubt. Where in the hell does he get the funds to pay for attys? or are they doing it pro bono for the publicity?

    The longer the wait, the sweeter the end will be…. I will be there and I will wave good bye with the big smile on my face, and a wish he has a nice stay in hell!

    Posted by BIG SIS | September 12, 2009, 1:35 pm
    • Great question, Big Sis: Where IS he getting the money for all the attorneys? No doubt some are doing pro bono work, but I highly doubt that all of them are (or have done pro bono work throughout this loooong ordeal). Then again, for what purpose do we think he has his little “fan club”? He has to drum up some money somehow. Plus, he, no doubt, loves all the attention.

      It seems that I have not yet read far enough back on the old threads to realize that you actually wrote to Hood. Unfortunately, I do not have time to hunt these old threads down and read through them at the moment (the thread I’ve read so far was LONG!). I cannot help but wonder if you were able to learn anything worthwhile and whether this experience revealed a glimpse of whatever it is that he has inside him which enabled him to do the unthinkable to two fellow human beings. I would imagine that receiving letters from him must have been a nauseating experience.

      I am so sad that you have been forced into the position you are in, where you are simply trying to make sense of your sister’s senseless death. Oh, how I wish I could offer up some wisdom to try to help you make sense of it, but there is simply no sense to be made of Ron’s and Tracie’s deaths. I am so glad that you have the pluck that you do. I admire you. Keep your chin up, Big Sis, and keep on keepin’ on!

      • I know that some of his paintings are sent to Australia and sold in a Gallery…other money comes from his girls!!

        Posted by Anonymous | September 12, 2009, 10:31 pm
        • I had no idea that he even painted. Is his talent even great enough to garner a respectable market?

          I love art, but would never be interested in one of his pieces — even if he had the talent and style on par with that of Monet or Matisse. Who wants to look at a piece of art on the wall and have it remind them that the artist created it while serving time in prison for committing such vile acts against two innocent people?

          Posted by Tracy | September 13, 2009, 12:33 am
  307. I have always had the understanding that criminals who are incarcerated could not profit from books, movies, or other things like that.
    I have seen his paintings and to me they seem to have a dark side, just a feeling I get when i looked at them.

    Unless he doesn’t have hands on access, it should go for his housing. I think I will ask the prosecutor about it.

    I thank you all again for your support,

    Hood had sent me a pic of himself and i sent it back telling him he had haunting eyes, dark sould. He responded that he “didn’t have haunting eyes it was just that he was surprised by the pic being taken, what a crock of shit that is, he was posed in the pic.

    love to all my supporters, and a kick in the teeth for all of those who are anti’s.

    oh and one more thing….. Thursday i became unemployed! Grrrr

    • So sorry about losing your job, Big Sis. You’ve been through much, much worse and come out strong — so just keep reminding yourself that you WILL get through this as well. My best wishes and prayers for you . . .

      • Duh. I just realized. He’s been declared indigent and he is not paying for the attys representing him. Either way, he’s making money based on the fact that he committed a crime and that is illegal.

  311. No retrial for condemned man after judge-DA affair

    Sept. 16, 2009, 12:38PM

    DALLAS — A Texas death row inmate won’t be able to argue for a new
    trial, despite admissions of an affair between his trial judge and
    the prosecutor.

    The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals issued a ruling today that
    convicted murderer Charles Dean Hood should have raised concerns
    about the affair between the now retired court officials in earlier
    appeals. The ruling overturned a lower court’s recommendation that
    Hood be able to argue for a new trial.

    Current Collin County prosecutor John Rolater called the ruling “a
    significant success.” Hood’s attorney declined to comment.
    Hood won a reprieve last September, a day before his scheduled
    execution. He was convicted in the 1989 fatal shootings of a 26-year-
    old woman and her 46-year-old boyfriend in Plano.

  312. I’m closing the comments to this post, as Hood’s last appeal has been denied by the Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.

    Hopefully a new execution date will be set (and finally carried out) quickly.

    I’ve written a new post here, where you can continue the comments.
