He was convicted April 30 in the shooting death of Sheila Dockens, 20. Waylon Dockens, 23, told jurors in State District Judge Mike McSpad-den's court that Broxton entered the 7S ly on a 13-year sentence for attempting to shoot Pasadena police Sgt. Walt Hays while fleeing a robbery in 1986. Broxton fired at least two shots at the officer before being captured in an apartment complex.

Under Texas law, a capital murder conviction carries only a life sentence or execution by lethal injection.
