Summary
A 79-year-old Arizona woman is facing murder charges for allegedly killing her stepfather 50 years ago—his body was found in the desert, and she’s been living in his house, cashing his retirement and Social Security checks all along. No police report was filed when he vanished at 73, but investigators zeroed in on her after she worked at a nearby museum. She’s now jailed on a $500K bond, with prosecutors calling her financial survival the motive behind this decades-old cold case.
