A look back at some of Harris County’s most infamous crimes of passion

David Temple, who was found guilty twice in the 1999 death of his wife and unborn baby, appeared before a judge again Monday morning.

Twice found guilty of his wife’s 1999 murder, David Temple lost an appeal stemming from a mistrial declared during the punishment phase of his 2019 trial.

HOUSTON – A judge on Wednesday denied a request by David Temple to be granted a third trial in connection with the murder of his wife two decades ago. The mistrial of the sentencing phase means a new jury will have to be assembled to consider Temple’s sentence. The second trial was ordered after an appeals court overturned Temple’s original 2007 murder conviction on the grounds of prosecutorial misconduct. Temple’s attorneys filed a motion last week asking the judge to toss out the second conviction altogether and conduct a completely new trial. The judge denied that request Wednesday.

HOUSTON – A judge will consider whether David Temple should be granted a new trial in the 1999 murder case of his wife, Belinda. He has been convicted of murder in this case before and most recently in August 2019 for the second time. The judge said Temple is entitled to bail under the law and set it at $1 million. Special prosecutors were appointed by a judge in 2017 to review the case and decide whether Temple would be tried again. If granted a new trial, it would be the third time he stands trial in the same case.
