San Antonio Officer Guilty In Assault, Manslaughter Case Involving Reckless Crash

San Antonio, Texas

Former San Antonio Police Officer David Seaton became a felon Monday after jurors in his high-profile trial found him guilty of recklessly causing a high-speed crash that killed a colleague.

Seaton, 45, who had been with the department for two years when the Nov. 28, 2008, wreck occurred, stared somberly as state District Judge Sid Harle read the verdicts.

Jurors took less than two hours to find him guilty of two counts of aggravated assault by a police officer, which is punishable by up to life in prison, and one count of manslaughter, for which he faces up to 20 years in prison.
