Paul Stautzenberger, 51, of Canyon Lake, Texas, was shot and killed at his Campbell Drive home on June 29, 2022. Hickman was arrested at the scene and booked into Comal County Jail with bail set at $250,000.

Authorities say Hickman called 911 and confessed, stating he had emptied six rounds into his father and that he felt great. At trial the jury heard that 911 call, testimony from deputies and a crime scene technician, and jailhouse phone calls in which Hickman said he and his father had been having a simple conversation before the shooting. Family members spoke at sentencing, saying Hickman had killed the one person who truly wanted him to succeed, and the Comal County District Attorney argued a life sentence was necessary to protect the community.

Does anyone have information about the relationship between Paul and Yacob or about events at the Campbell Drive residence leading up to the shooting?
