Texas Man Arrested After Alleged Wife Murder, Body Found at Home

News summary

Charles Byrd, a 49-year-old man from San Antonio, Texas, was arrested after allegedly killing his wife, Angela Byrd, and living with her decomposing body for about a month. A relative tipped off authorities, leading deputies to discover human remains wrapped in plastic in Byrd's home, which are believed to be Angela's, pending medical examiner confirmation. Byrd admitted to a physical confrontation with his wife on June 16 that he claims led to her death, and he reportedly made a flippant remark during interrogation, saying, "go big or go home," referring to it being his first crime. He was found hiding about a mile away from his residence and was charged with tampering with evidence; a murder charge is expected once the medical examiner rules on the cause of death. Byrd expressed remorse during his arrest, stating he loved his wife and was experiencing a "mental break," while also apologizing to his children. Several other arrests were made in connection with the case, though details about other suspects have not been disclosed by authorities.
