FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) -- A Texas woman who caused her lover's shooting death by falsely crying rape was convicted Friday of involuntary manslaughter.

Tracy Denise Roberson, 37, cried a bit when the verdict was announced. The punishment phase was set for Monday, and she faces two to 20 years in prison.

In late 2006, Darrell Roberson came home from a late-night card game to find his scantily clad wife with another man in a pickup truck in the driveway. Tracy Roberson was with her lover but cried rape, and her husband fired four shots into the truck as Devin LaSalle drove off, killing him.

Darrell Roberson initially was arrested, but a murder charge was later dropped and a grand jury indicted Tracy Roberson instead.

During her three-day trial, defense attorneys called no witnesses but blamed LaSalle's death on Darrell Roberson's jealousy and rage.

But prosecutors placed all the blame on Tracy Roberson, showing evidence of the affair with LaSalle, 32, and a text message in which she invited him to her house that evening. E-mail to a friend

Whoa. Its a weird case indeed. The husband shot the guy, but the wife was to be blamed? LOL.

Love means nothing when its comes out from your mouth..

But it means everything when its comes from the heart..

Dont fall in love..

Cus she cry rape when she willing ask the man aka lover over.

i think its because she lied about her lover, by shouting it probably enraged the husband more to kill the lover, who thought that he raped his wife. but when in actual fact its not

whether or not was she wrong in either having adultery or the false cry, or both, the husband clearly did not have the right to shoot the man.

Once you burn away the flesh;
Past the muscles and organs;
There lies a pile of bones.

Everything else is disintegrated.
Only the bones remain.

So these bones are laid to rest
Beneath the deep green grass.
Remember that they'll be still be there
As relics of the past.

And the memory still remains,
Like a stain;
A spot on the mind;

That's wearing away like over washed cotton.

Beneath the deep green grass
Lies bones forgotten.

this is bad karma .

人情味不是偏私而是博爱，

不是施舍而是关怀。

不是表面的礼貌，

而是内心的尊重。

Friends will bail you out of jail.but Best Friends will be sitting by you saying,
" that was awesome !"
