Son Kills Mom in Front of Daughter Over Eviction
6 Feb
Summary
- Man accused of killing his mother after she evicted him.
- Shooting occurred in front of defendant's 9-year-old daughter.
- Trial ongoing, bullet matched gun found in suspect's car.
A Texas man, Frank Falcon, faces a capital murder charge for allegedly fatally shooting his mother, Linda Webster, and injuring his stepfather, Mark Webster, on July 14, 2022. The tragic event unfolded in San Antonio, Texas, in the presence of Falcon's then-9-year-old daughter. Prosecutors contend the motive was Linda Webster's eviction of her son due to unpaid property taxes.
Falcon had reportedly agreed to live rent-free in his mother's property on the condition he paid property taxes. However, an outstanding bill revealed four years of unpaid taxes, leading to his eviction. During the ongoing trial, Mark Webster identified Falcon as the shooter, although some of his memories from the incident are less clear.
Evidence presented includes body camera footage where Mark Webster tentatively identified his stepson. A responding officer noted Falcon was wearing black latex gloves at the scene, which were later found on the ground. The bullet retrieved from Linda Webster's body has been matched to a firearm discovered in Falcon's vehicle following his arrest. Falcon fled the scene and was apprehended using a Taser-like device.
