365 Days of Texas True Crime: Nettie Part 2 18 months after Velma Nesset was murdered and left under a drainage culvert as she walked to work a 22 year-old man was arrested and charged with her murder. Johnny Ray Foote had worked with Nesset at the mall for just a month and he happened to live in the same apartment complex as she did. When police brought him in for questioning they were able to obtain a confession, but was that confession coerced? 244th Judicial District Judge Joe Connally didn t seem to think so based on the evidence that was presented to him at the time. Defense attorney John Hoestenbach tried to have the statements that Foote had made to investigators during questioning suppressed.  He argued that his client had a low IQ and very little education and he was vulnerable to the pressure the police were putting him under during their interrogation. Hoestenbach argued that the confession was simply to end what he called, police harassment.
