Only know how to do links, sorry. It's John Lovett and Colion Noir on this.
Read a comment by a supposed Texas LEO who delt a lot wwith domestic issues. (Don't most?)
His take was that failure to comply with a Texas court order on custody is a low level felony. Therefore the cold guy was justified in being there and the ex-wife could be facing felony murder. Seeing as she was in the act of a felony that contributed to a death.

If that's true, I don't blame the "trespasser" for getting pissed and not leaving. And I wonder how that would change the culpability of the wife. If she was denying him his visitation, she had to know that would set him off.
