It took less than an hour of deliberations Monday afternoon before a jury found Kendall Batchelor guilty of intoxication manslaughter.
The trial of Batchelor, 23, who is the daughter of luxury auto dealer Ken Batchelor, next moved into the sentencing phase.
Batchelor was charged with the second-degree felony after being accused of driving a large pickup truck into oncoming traffic on Texas 46 on June 2, hitting and killing 48-year-old David John Belter, a longtime Boerne resident. Following her conviction after four days of proceedings, Kendall County prosecutors Gretchen Flader and Manuel Cardenas introduced 500 images and hours of video footage, as well as dozens of witnesses, detailing Batchelor’s checkered past both locally and in other counties.
