Diane Zamora gets hitched

After getting permission from the state, convicted murderer Diane Zamora got married today in a rare double-proxy ceremony to another inmate.


A judge in San Antonio performed the wedding ceremony in which Zamora's mother and a male friend stood in for the imprisoned couple, County Clerk Gerry Rickhoff said.

Zamora, who attended the U.S. Naval Academy, and ex-boyfriend David Graham, who was at the Air Force Academy, were convicted of capital murder in the 1995 slaying of 16-year-old Adrianne Jones of Mansfield.

Prosecutors contended that Zamora urged Graham to kill Jones after he had a purported one-time sexual encounter with her.

Zamora and Graham were sentenced to life prison terms.

Earlier this year, Zamora and Steven Mora wrote the county clerk office asking for permission to get a marriage license.

KDFW-TV in Dallas obtained a copy of the marriage certificate -- dated June 17 and issued by Bexar County -- naming Zamora, 25, and Mora, 27, of San Antonio.


Before anyone asks, there's no indication whether she will now call herself Diane Zamora Mora.

I believe the couple is registered at Bering's Hardware. Anyone looking to pick up a nice gift for under $25 can pick up the pocket hacksaw with 3 spare blades that the couple is sure to appreciate.

With any luck maybe her new husband will admit to having a liaison with some other dude in his facility and she'll make him kill him to avenge the "one, who for a moment, had replaced her."

Diane Zamora...Deserves to be behind BARS...a patheticly cold, hateful, selfish, murderer. A "girl" who killed another girl out of CATTIE, jealousy. I watched the trial, and watched her and listened to her....she's a COLD, selfish, hateful "girl." I'm so HAPPY SHE's in JAIL...and I'm on the "outside" - FREEEEEEE !!! Rot in jail Zamora. Just hope your new husband, the "inmate" didn't have any ANAL or ORAL sex with other male inmates before meeting you Diane..and won't give you AIDS !

I was on cellblock C at Reception in Gatesville, TX, with her back in July 2000. She was bull-daggin' with the best of them back then.She was in close-custody for trying to commit suicide over another girl at the time. Now all the sudden she's gotten married. You're not fooling me,Zamora.

I watched the movie on Lifetime about what Diane and her boyfriend did... You deserve whatever hellish treatment you receive in jail Diane. As well as whatever happens to the man you swore you would go to the grave with. I guess true love didnt last as long as you had wanted. Was it worth it? You lost the man, your life and you are responisble for many people's pain. Selfishness will never get you far. Remember, what goes around comes around.

I think David and Diane deserve to live in misery for whst they did to AJ. No one deserves to die like that and no one should even ask another to assist in something like that. I hope you both of you get beat up repeatly in jail..Maybe, then you'll experience some real pain for once.

I THINK THAT WHAT DIANE DID WAS NOT WRONG SHE WAS HURT BY THE LOVE OF HER LIFE AND SHE WANTED TO GET THE WHORE BACK WHITH WAS AJ SHE DESERVED WHAT SHE GOT. AND I DONT THINK THAT DIANE DESEVERES TO BE IN JAIL SHE DID IT FOR LOVE I THINK DIANE SHOULD BE FREED

To the person that posted the comment that you feel that she didnt do anything wrong and see deserves to be freed. there is a fine line here in society in which people do not need to cross. I dont care if he slep with her in from of diane no one deserves to die. With the mind frame that you have mabye you should be locked up with her.

All I want to say is that what goes around comes around. My prayers go to Adrianne and her family and friends. In order for people to go on with their lives, they need to learn forgiveness. It is terrible what Diane and David did to such a beautiful person, but karma will take its place in Diane's life. Every day for the rest of her life, Diane will have to think about killing this beautiful, loving person, and she will suffer in jail, alone. She may be married, but she does not get the joys of being married. I feel sorry for her too.

Diane, should you ever get this i understand how you felt at the time and i for now forgive you. For true love is in the heart and not in the hands of others and should this world ever get it's head on right it might just be a better place for all. I hope that your love will always be for david. And i hope that david realize that sometimes love is the only thing you got, and bars can not keep it from where it belongs, and that only the mind keeps it is the bars. I wish you all that you hope for and all that you. I hope that you did not marry and forget about your true love for if that is true then the world has won and has broken something that was never ment to be broken
