Norma Allbritton was arrested for the shooting death of her husband more than 30 years ago.
An 84-year-old Texas woman was arrested this month and charged with murder — 35 years after her husband was found shot to death inside their home.Norma Allbritton was arrested July 1 and transported to the Leon County Jail, where she stayed until posting a $50,000 bond on July 3. Her husband, Johnnie, 64, was found dead May 14, 1984, according to The Eagle in Texas. Authorities said he had been shot five times as he entered his home.
The Palestine Herald-Press reported that Norma was scheduled to take a polygraph test two weeks after her husband's death but she claimed she had accidentally shot herself and couldn't keep the appointment. After five weeks of preparatory work by the Leon County Sheriff's Office, deputies teamed with Johnny Bonds, a producer for the show and a retired homicide investigator for the Houston Police Department. Together, they interviewed witnesses and persons of interest from the past 35 years, the Herald-Press reported.
