SAN ANTONIO (AP) - Two San Antonio brothers have been charged with killing three people, including one defendant's 10-year-old daughter who alleged they sexually abused her.
A grand jury Tuesday indicted 32-year-old Conrad Ochoa and 37-year-old Baron Ochoa on capital murder counts. Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty over the 2011 stabbing attack that killed Conrad Ochoa's daughter, her mother and their roommate.
The victims were Samvastion "Sammie" Ochoa, 29-year-old Rebecca "Veggie" Gonzales and 41-year-old Pamela Wenske.
Conrad Ochoa previously was charged with possession of child pornography. Baron Ochoa was charged with continuous sexual abuse of a child.
Prosecutors say the bodies were found during a house fire a few days before the brothers faced court appearances related to alleged abuse. Conrad Ochoa and Gonzales were also in a custody battle over the girl.
