Joseph Alliniece
Defense attorneys for a Texas man convicted of first-degree murder in the 2018 death of a Norman resident brought the defendantâs family members and friends in Thursday to plead for life in prison instead of the death penalty.
Joseph Fidel Alliniece, 32, of Missouri City, Texas, was found guilty Monday of the first-degree murder of Brittani Young, 27, two counts of kidnapping and one count of robbery by force or fear. Records show the crimes occurred April 24, 2018, inside an Emerald Greens Apartments residence, and that Alliniece stomped on Young multiple times.
Allinieceâs parents, Brenda and Gary, testified about their sonâs childhood, describing him as happy, sweet, loving and well liked growing up.

A death penalty trial for Texas resident Joseph Alliniece continued Tuesday with testimony from law enforcement officers, a former cab driver who picked up the defendant and one of Allinieceâs friends who had recent contact with him.
Alliniece, 32, of Missouri City, Texas, is charged with first-degree murder of Norman resident Brittani Young, 27, as well as two counts of kidnapping and one count of robbery by force or fear.
According to a Norman police affidavit, officers found Young on April 24, 2018, dead inside her Emerald Greens Apartments residence. Alliniece fled the scene but was later arrested that night by Oklahoma City Police Department officers. He was then taken to the Norman Investigations Center for questioning, where he said he couldnât remember anything from that day.
