A 78-year-old woman was murdered in her own home over the weekend by an 83-year-old man she used to be in a relationship with.
The Rowlett Police Department said that they received a call on Saturday night, June 3, about a “unconscious person” in a home on Seafield Lane before discovering 78-year-old Sharon Radebaugh shot to death. Police said the slaying was not random and that Trinity, Texas resident Elliott Wilson, 83, committed an “act of violence” that “stemmed from a previous relationship.” Authorities claimed the suspect admitted to shooting Radebaugh amid an argument over her new relationship.
The suspect was not arrested until the next evening, Sunday, June 4, Rowlett Police said.
“[A]t approximately 5:30 p.m., after a thorough investigation and with the assistance of the Trinity County Sheriff’s Department and the Texas Rangers, the Rowlett Police Criminal Investigations Division took Elliott into custody,” authorities said.
Notably, Trinity is a three-hour drive away from Rowlett, which is contained within both Dallas County and Rockwell County. Cops said the murder case would be filed in Dallas County. In the meantime, Elliott Wilson was arraigned in Trinity County and held on $1,000,000 bond Sunday.
