A 69-year-old woman in Texas who admitted to killing her 72-year-old sister in a home where their other sister was also found dead will avoid prison and will instead spend the next decade under supervision at an assisted living facility for the elderly.

Senior District Judge Laura Parker on Wednesday sentenced Dores Campos to 10 years of deferred adjudication — a kind of probation that can allow a defendant to have the criminal case against them dismissed — for the slaying of 64-year-old Patricia Sauceda, court records reviewed by Law&Crime show.

Sauceda was found dead inside her home last year by police along with Campos — who they say admitted to fatally shooting her sister in the chest — as well as the body of their deceased older sibling, 72-year-old Linda Blann, who authorities believe died of natural causes.

Campos on Wednesday appeared in Texas’ 290th District Court where she pleaded no contest to one count of manslaughter in her sister’s death. She had initially been arrested and charged with murder before she reached a deal with prosecutors in which she agreed to plead to the lesser charge of manslaughter.
