Police arrested and charged a father and son early Thursday in connection with the murder of a pregnant teenager who was about to give birth, and her boyfriend, in San Antonio last month.

Christopher Preciado, 19, was charged with capital murder while his father, 53-year-old Ramon Preciado, was charged with abuse of a corpse for allegedly helping to move the bodies of Savanah Soto, 18, and Matthew Guerra, 22, who were found shot dead in a car.

A conviction for capital murder is punishable by the death penalty or life imprisonment.

San Antonio Police Department confirmed the charges in a statement and said more charges are pending, possibly relating to the death of the unborn child.

      Such a law failed to go anywhere in 2001 under threat of veto by Clinton. I’m not aware of it ever being passed. Although it looks like there are some state laws on the books in some red states, so no this hasn’t always been the case. So no, I’m pretty far from fifteen since I was going off of memory until I had to double check myself after your comment.
