Houston, TX: South Texas Prison Guard Sought for Murder

A South Texas state prison guard is the subject of a manhunt after witnesses say he murdered his wife and mother-in-law
ROSENBERG (December 28, 2009)—South Texas lawmen are searching for a Texas prison guard whom they say stabbed and killed his wife and mother-in-law as children watched.

Rosenberg police Lt. Colin Davidson says Albert James Turner, 44, is wanted for murder in the incident that erupted in the Houston suburb after a Sunday argument at his in-law’s home turned violent.

Dead are Turner's 39-year-old wife, Keitha Frank Turner,
and her mother, 66-year-old Betty Jo Frank.

The Houston Chronicle reported Turner was identified as the suspect by eyewitnesses, including a child who called 911.

The sound of children screaming can be heard in the background on
the tape.

Turner could be headed to the Orlando, Fla., area, where he has family, police say.
