The second day of William Reece's murder trial began Wednesday morning. The jury heard from two of the four women who survived encounters with Reece.
The first witness of the day, Sandra Sapaugh, is the reason Reece is serving a 60-year rape and kidnapping conviction in Texas. She was abducted in May 1997 at knifepoint. She only escaped after she jumped out of Reece's moving truck on a Texas expressway.
The second witness and her friend were taken by Reece from a Houston area diner late on July 3, 1997. They were 16 and 17 years old at the time, Reece offered them a ride home. He instead took them to his house where he attacked both and allegedly sexually assaulted the woman on the stand.
