For the next two weeks, a capital murder defendant accused of killing a Harris County Sheriff's Office deputy will represent himself.
"There's no more serious case than a capital murder case in which the death penalty is being sought," Isbell said."Mr. Solis has had experience in the court system and if anybody is qualified, I guess he is to represent himself."The body language of the prosecutors intensified as the realization sank in that they would deal directly with Solis amid the trial, rather than the defense lawyers they had worked alongside for years.
Prosecutor Katie Warren gives the state’s opening statements in the capital murder trial against Robert Solis Monday, Oct. 10, 2022 in Houston. Solis, who accused of killing Harris County Sheriff's Office Deputy Sandeep Dhaliwal, is representing himself in the case that carries the death penalty.She said Solis lied about his identity and that Dhaliwal grew suspicion.
Solis asked the doctor during cross-examination whose decision it ultimately was to stop the medication. The doctor said it was hers."No. He had a fatal injury," she continued. She knew something was wrong when she saw his door ajar and the emergency lights on. She spotted Dhaliwal on the ground and rushed to give him CPR, quickly realizing that he would not survive. Skull fragments were stuck to his hair, she said.Friends and family of slain Harris County Sheriff’s Office deputy Sandeep Dhaliwal, listen to opening statements in the capital murder trial against Dhaliwal’s accused killer, Robert Solis, Monday, Oct. 10, 2022 in Houston.
