Tuesday for brutally beating and sexually assaulting a man during a confrontation at a northwest Harris County bar.
“This was a savage and unprovoked attack on a stranger that continued to escalate until the authorities broke it up,” District Attorney Kim Ogg said in a news release Tuesday. “Random violence can never be tolerated, and we agree with the jury that this man should be sent to prison for decades.” The couple exited the bar initially, but returned 10 minutes later and attacked the man, who was knocked unconscious within the first five seconds of the beating. The couple continued to hit him with their fists, feet, a barstool and a gun for almost 30 minutes until Harris County sheriff’s deputies arrived. The attack happened as Winter Storm Uri caused a big freeze in Houston, which delayed law enforcement.During the beating, the couple took the victim’s wallet and sexually assaulted him.
