It looks like he was never retried after the 2010 appeal reversed and remanded for a new trial. I see a man of the same name died earlier this year in Florida. He doesn’t show up in Tx doc records online.

    Let’s hope the old creep really is dead. Because if not, poor Dr. Mouchin got no justice.

The show (Your Worst Nightmare) said he died in prison in 2017.

I did find a reference that the reversal was reversed.

The state asked and received a review of the overturned conviction and the conviction was upheld after the full review. He died in prison in 2017.

  Where did you find your information? We are former clients of Deborah’s and have never ever heard that his conviction was upheld and/or that he died in prison.
