TEXAS:

2 Charged in Hearne Murders

A pair of Waco men have been charged with capital murder in the shooting
deaths of 2 Hearne residents. D'nard Anderson and Dameon Laws, both 21,
are in jail, accused of killing Harry Monson and Chandell Lewis on October
25.

Laws was arrested Thursday, and also faces two aggravated assault with a
deadly weapon charges after being implicated in an August 1 shooting in
Waco. He is in the McLennan County jail on a $1.6 million bond. Anderson
is in the Robertson County jail on a $1 million bond following his arrest
on November 7.

Monson and Lewis were each shot multiple times outside a home on Navasota
Street.

Capital murder charges carry with them a possibility of the death penalty.
Since 1976, Texas Department of Criminal Justice records show no
executions based on crimes committed in Robertson County. No current death
row inmates committed crimes in that county.
