Alex Rojas, 30, was found guilty of capital murder for fatally injuring a child under 10 in Matagorda County. He was sentenced to life in prison without parole. Rojas shook and struck 14-month-old Juanito Certa, who was left in his care by the child’s mother. Despite Rojas claiming the child fell off the bed, medical professionals confirmed the injuries were from violent shaking. Certa suffered severe injuries, including a fractured skull, internal decapitation, and hemorrhaging in the brain and spinal cord. The jury took an hour to reach a guilty verdict, after testimony from Certa’s family.
