Quoted from Athens Daily Review:
"Published: May 13, 2008 03:31 pm
Randall Wayne Mays on Tuesday was sentenced to die for the May
17, 2007, fatal shooting of Henderson County Sheriff's Deputy Tony
Ogburn."

I viewed a video similar to this quite some time back and figured with Mother's Day upon us, I'd share it here for anyone who may not have seen it.
"What a mom says in 24 hours, condensed into 2 minutes and 55 seconds! "This person has the lyrics on the page as well.
Happy Mother's Day!
I was just curious as to why Fox4 isn't covering the trial against Randall Wayne Mays; the man who killed the two law enforcement officers May 17, 2007.
Quote from Athens Daily Review:
"Mays was indicted last June for the May 17, 2007, shooting of
Henderson County Sheriff’s Investigator Paul Habelt, 63, and Deputy
Tony Ogburn, 61. Habelt and Ogburn were shot and killed while
responding to a domestic disturbance at a Payne Springs residence.
A
third deputy, Kevin Harris was also shot in the leg during the
incident. He has been present at many of the pre-trial hearings."If I recall correctly the shootout in Payne Springs was big enough news that Fox4 made an appearance; yet no mention of his trial? Why is that?
I realize that Cedar Creek Lake is not "dead center" of your viewing center; it is a bit to the south-east of Dallas. But why is it that the shooting was important enough to cover, but yet Fox4 can't even mention the trial?? Why? Has everyone forgotten the fallen men already?
(I apologize beforehand if I have somehow missed where Fox4 has mentioned the trial.)
For anyone who is perhaps interested, here are some of the write-ups done in the Athens Daily Review:

As I already posted in the Weather blogs...
Hope all in the area around Canton/Athens and the areas east of that stay safe during the storm and tornado.
One of my boys had called telling me the emergency sirens had sounded and the school is now on lock-down. I checked the news and at first found nothing. Then about 10 minutes later it was reported that a tornado touched down in the Canton area. Luckily for my boys they shouldn't be effected as the news said the tornado is heading east of Canton.
Stay safe everyone.
My son called about 20 minutes ago from a local school saying the emergency sirens had gone off and they are under lock-down. So I turned on the news, which finally started reporting a tornado had touched down in Canton. Luckily for my boys the news said it looks as if the tornado is heading east of Canton, so the boys should be safe.
Stay safe everyone in the area.
