Flowers was arrested in the following days, ironically, days in front of a magistrate’s office.

Sentencing was delayed during the pandemic as Flowers challenged her competency, according to prosecutors. But she was found competent by a jury this month and then sentenced.

“After a delay by this defendant of more than two years, I am glad the Roper family finally has some closure and justice in this case,” said Bexar County District Attorney Joe Gonzales.
