The jury found him guilty of "murder with malice aforethought".[3] One juror argued for life imprisonment while the other eleven were for the death penalty. Judge Charles O. Betts, however, overruled the jury, giving Wallace a five-year sentence, suspended, so he was immediately freed. Bill Adler of the Texas Observer, reports that several of the jury members telephoned Kinser's family to apologize, explaining that they agreed to the sentence only after threats were made against their families.[4][2][5]
