ODESSA -- An Odessa man is facing capital murder charges after authorities say he killed a 5-week old infant.
41-year-old John Bailey was arrested in early December. He was indicted today in an Ector County courtroom. An arrest affidavit says Bailey flipped 5-week-old Dustyn Wright in his car seat in the fatal March 2008 incident. Wright suffered a severe head trauma in the incident. He was taken to Medical Center hospital, and later died after he was transferred to an El Paso hospital.
District attorney Bobby Bland told Big 2 that no trial date has yet been set.
