More bizarre news from Tyler, TX as a judge rules that the remains of 8-year-old victim belong to the convicted killer instead of the family.

Killer refuses to release boy's remains for burial
Associated Press
TYLER, Texas -- A convicted murderer being held in Atlanta is refusing to sign a waiver the district attorney says it needs to release the remains of an 8-year-old East Texas boy. [...]
Chad was shot in 1991, and buried in a shallow grave behind a house where Horn's family lived. Horn then tormented the Choice family for years, sending ransom notes and placing Chad's skull on the doorstep of the Choices' home on the fourth anniversary of the boy's disappearance. [...]
