The Facts

Texas Rangers are investigating three deaths in the past three years they claim are connected to a disbarred Brazoria County attorney. A lawyer representing the former attorney said he did not believe there was a connection in the deaths. Angleton native Amanda Linscomb, 30, was pronounced dead April 14 at Conroe Regional Medical Center. Police said her body was found by her boyfriend, Roland Shawn Roberts, 40, of Manvel. Texas Ranger Kevin Pullen said the cause of Linscomb’s death has not been determined.

Roberts faces trial in May on a delivery of a controlled substance charge in a Harris County district court related to the drowning death of another girlfriend, Tara Sganga, in March 2007. Also, Manvel police said Tuesday they have reopened the case involving the overdose of Steven Blackshear, who was found dead in Roberts’ Manvel home on March 6, 2009. An autopsy later revealed he overdosed from prescription medications.
