Muniz's arrest has generated widespread anger with hundreds expressing their disgust for the suspect online.

Dallas attorney Richard Franklin, who was appointed by the court to represent Langrum, said it was a difficult case to defend as they had nothing to counter the accusations.

Jury deadlock prompts judge to declare mistrialMurder suspect Alex Roberson will undergo a new trial for the killing of a toddler after Judge Mike Snipes of the State District announced a mistrial. The mistrial was prompted when two of the 12 jurors made a stance in their belief that Roberson was not guilty of beating to death one-year and eight-month old Trey Jenkins, the son of his girlfriend. If the jury had not been deadlocked, Roberson would have automatically received a sentence of life imprisonment. Roberson has been accused of mauling the little boy which resulted to broken ribs. The boy also had damaged liver, adrenal glands and lungs, which caused his death. During the trial, Dallas criminal defense attorney Bill Cox said that the toddler's mother, Precious Williams, could have been the one to inflict the fatal injuries on her boy. Shequitta Kelly, who was prosecuting the case, said that Williams may be far from an ideal mother but she could have never killed her own son.

The New Haven Land Bank will be led by Serena Neal-Sanjurjo, former director of the city's anti-blight Livable City Initiative, and will work with local officials including Mayor Justin Elicker to address the city's shortage of affordable housing.
