FORT WORTH -- A couple who bound and killed a Vietnam veteran inside his Arlington home in 2011, then stuffed the man's body into his own refrigerator and dumped it in Ellis County, pleaded guilty Monday to murder.
In exchange for their pleas, Thomas Dunham was sentenced to 45 years in prison and Erin Williams to 30 years. They entered their pleas in State District Judge Robb Catalano's court.
Williams, who also went by the last name of Guthrie, had been staying with the victim, Jerry Vern Roberts, before the 62-year-old man's disappearance in May 2011.
When Roberts failed to show up at work at his nephew's trucking business, concerned relatives went to his home on West Sanford Street where they found sheets covering the windows, the refrigerator and Robert's truck missing, and what appeared to be blood on their uncle's chair.
