GALVESTON, Texas—Baby Grace's stepfather, in a suicide note, claimed his wife was innocent and that he was guilty of past sins, according to testimony in his capital murder trial Tuesday.

Royce Clyde Zeigler II
After five days of testimony in the death of Baby Grace, prosecutors Tuesday rested their case against Royce Clyde Zeigler II, 26, who is accused of the July 25, 2007, killing of his 2-year-old stepdaughter, Riley Ann Sawyers.
The state's final day of testimony included evidence from an FBI handwriting expert, who concluded Zeigler wrote a suicide note.
The note says Zeigler's wife, Kimberly Dawn Trenor, 21, was innocent and that Zeigler was guilty of past sins.
Zeigler wrote the note and took several pills one week before his arrest in November 2007.
Zeigler's note, however, doesn't say what he is guilty of or what his wife is innocent of.
