The 14 year old suspect now has a "high-profile" attorney - Wendell Odom Jr. who represented Andrea Yates after she drowned her five children.

And they still didn't say his name.

Orange County sheriff's deputies aren't releasing the identity of the suspect because of his age. However, he has been booked into the juvenile detention center in nearby Beaumont and awaits arraignment later this week in Orange.

I haven't read any reports of an arrest. They haven't released a name, but have stated that the suspect is a 14 year old. They have also stated that there was no evidence of forced entry and that the son was only person in the house. I think that they are following protocol, because the suspect is a minor.

The hairs on the back of my neck were at attention when I first read the post.

It appears that our "Spidey Sense" is still working.

It appears that the son of the slain Orangefield teacher will be charged with shooting his mother. Sheriff Merritt stated that a 14-year-old is the suspect in a teacher's shooting. He said that he will ask the D.A. to file charges against the teen in the homicide of Staci Lisenby, 46, of Orangefield. The sheriff didn't name the suspect, but he said the only person in the home at the time of Lisenby's shooting on Sunday, was her son. Investigators said there was no evidence of an intruder, although they say the son told them an intruder shot his mother.


I wonder why they aren't naming names? Maybe because he is a minor?

Sheriff Merritt is aware that there are numerous rumors circulating throughout the county about this case. Sheriff Merritt would like to ask all citizens to use their good judgment and question the reliability of information sources.

From the beginning I didn't believe that this was a random home invasion type shooting. It makes me wonder if her son was involved or maybe one of her students.

She died shortly after noon Monday at Christus Hospital St. Elizabeth. Her 14 year old son was at home with her when the shooting occurred. He told police that a man shot her and then ran away.
