Samuel Dean, 48, of San Antonio, Texas, was shot and killed on August 29, 2014, during an argument with his son, Jason Turner, who was 32 at the time. The dispute escalated and Turner shot his father; Turner left the scene in his truck and was later taken into custody. The medical examiner determined Samuel’s cause of death was gunshot wounds inflicted by his son.

Investigators developed a record of ongoing conflict between father and son; witnesses and family members testified about frequent arguments and prior altercations. Prosecutors presented evidence of Jason Turner’s history of aggressive behavior, while the defense emphasized his troubled state and intense emotional distress at the time of the shooting. A jury convicted Turner of murder and returned a sentence of 68 years in prison in 2016.

Does anyone have additional information about Samuel Dean’s life in San Antonio or knew the family and can share details that might shed light on what led to this fatal confrontation?
