Irving Man Sentenced To Death For Double Murder

DALLAS (AP) - A Dallas-area man has been sentenced to death for killing his girlfriend and her 18-year-old daughter during a jealous rage.

A Dallas County jury on Wednesday decided on the death penalty for 39-year-old Tyrone Cade of Irving. Jurors last week rejected an insanity defense and convicted Cade of capital murder in the 2011 attack.

The victims were 37-year-old Mischell Fuller and Desaree Hoskins.

Investigators say Cade on March 27, 2011, walked into a police station and confessed to killing the women. Officers went to Cade's home and located the bodies.

Authorities say Fuller and Cade had argued over a conversation she allegedly had with her ex-husband.
