the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals ordered a new sentencing hearing for Gregory Russeau, who was convicted of capital murder in the death of James Swertson, 75, during a robbery in May 2001.
The court upheld Russeau’s capital murder conviction, but ordered a new sentencing hearing after finding that Russeau's right to confront witnesses against him had been violated during trial.
