Really? Are you freakin serious?!! A child molestor, and murderer. I live 12mi away from Plano, in North Tx. I remember when this happened. Your sympathy is sickening. But, silver lining, the fat ugly nasty woman-killer and child molester is dead, so yay for that!!

12yr old Brandi Taylor spent the night at a friend's slumber party. The party was at the home of Alba, her friend's uncle. She complained that Alba had molested her and he was arrested on a charge of indecency with a child. Police arrested Alba and handcuffed him at the scene, but allowed him to speak with his wife Wendy before he was transported to Allen City Jail. When Wendy told Alba that she would not help him get out of jail, he said, “Wendy, you better come get me out of jail or I’ll kill you.” He killed her the day after he got out of jail, as promised.



Upon release, he located his wife at the apartment of her friends, Bob Donoho and Gail Webb. Donoho rushed to a back bedroom to place an emergency 911 call. Wendy and Gail Webb leaned against the apartment door with all of their combined strength trying to close and lock the door and prevent Alba from getting in, but Alba overpowered them and forced the door open. He entered the apartment and waved the pistol, laughing and saying to the women, “You bitches deserve this.” Alba then grabbed Wendy by the hair and dragged her to the doorway of the apartment where he pistol-whipped her and shot her to death. Alba then stood over Webb, who was crouched on the floor cowering with her arms over her head, kicked her repeatedly and shot her six times at point-blank range while her young son watched. When Gail’s arm broke and fell away from her head, he shot her once more, in the temple. She lived only because the bullet passed through her sinus cavity and exited through her teeth. Webb survived the attack and testified at Alba’s trial. After shooting at Donoho, Alba left the scene in his own car at a high rate of speed. He was apprehended the next day after a lengthy stand-off with the police at a retail shopping center in Plano.
