A 19-year-old convicted killer flew into a rage in a Houston courtroom after a Harris County jury sentenced him to death.
Dexter Johnson was one of five men who carjacked 23-year-old Maria Aparece and her boyfriend Huy Ngo as they sat in their chatting on a summer night more than ten years ago. Prosecutors during his trial alleged Johnson had “fun” when he and his friends carjacked the couple and drove them around town demanding money, credit cards and ATM access.
Then, they parked near a patch of thick woods and forced Ngo to listen as Johnson raped Aparece in the backseat. Afterward, Johnson shot Ngo in the side of the head execution-style before slaughtering Aparece with a shot to the top of the head.
