Man's death penalty set aside in '99 kidnap-slaying in Dallas | News for Dallas, Texas | Dallas Morning News | Breaking News for Dallas-Fort Worth | Dallas Morning News

Man's death penalty set aside in '99 kidnap-slaying in Dallas | News for Dallas, Texas | Dallas Morning News | Breaking News for Dallas-Fort Worth | Dallas Morning News: "Texas' highest criminal court on Wednesday tossed out the conviction of a man sent to death row for kidnapping and killing a 20-year-old man during a robbery at a Dallas ATM in 1999.
But Dallas County District Attorney Craig Watkins said 32-year-old Roderick Newton will never go free.
'He'll never get out,' Watkins said.
Expecting the court to set aside the death penalty conviction, Watkins said Newton has already pleaded guilty to capital murder and attempted capital murder of a police officer in exchange for two life sentences after the district attorney's office agreed he should receive a new trial.
The sentences are 'stacked,' meaning that if Newton is paroled on one charge, he would then have to serve the other sentence."
