Peggy Wright, a 78-year-old woman, came face-to-face with an intruder in her home on FM 148 near Crandall four years ago on October 15. A woman allegedly pulled a gun on Wright, stole $200, and tied her to a chair.

“She had been tied at her ankles, at her thighs, and at her wrist, all the way down through her skin, down nearly to her bone,” Wright’s daughter Carla Cullum toldNBC 5 DFW.

The unidentified suspect then allegedly set the house ablaze, leaving Wright to burn alive inside. She was rescued by a passerby and hospitalized for smoke inhalation and burns. However, after six months of medical treatment, she died, and police upgraded the criminal offense to capital murder.
