Texas couple agreed to let man watch them have sex, then killed him

A Central Texas couple is accused of agreeing to let a man watch them have sex, then killing him when he tried to join in, according to court documents.

Mark James Stevens, 38, and Jeanette Lauralee Stevens, 38, face murder charges in the death of Brandon Lamont Fontenette, a 36-year-old Austin man. Both are being held in the Hays County Jail on a $250,000 bond.

According to arrest warrant affidavits for the Stevens, the couple met Fontenette at Railhouse, a bar and grill in Kyle, Texas, on the evening of July 25. Mark Stevens told investigators that Fontenette wanted to have sex with the couple and that he agreed to let the Fontenette watch him and his wife have sex at their home.

Fontenette followed the couple to their Buda home. Mark Stevens told investigators that as he kissed his wife, Fontenette “attempted to force his way between them.” Enraged, Stevens retrieved an Airsoft BB gun and a knife and started shooting at Fontenette, the affidavits say.

Fontenette tried to punch Stevens but missed, and Stevens stabbed him in the back, according to the affidavit. The victim “stumbled into the [master] bathroom and collapsed on the floor,” according to the affidavit.
