A year after killing her 18-year-old grandson, a 62-year-old woman was sentenced to 25 years under a plea agreement in Montague, Texas, according to the Associated Press. Jamie Larue Holmes pled guilty to murder and arson after setting her mobile home on fire moments after killing her grandson, Brock Holmes. Upset the previous night about his not seeking a job, she shot him in the back of the head the next morning while he slept in the trailer in Nocona, northwest of Dallas in June of 2006.
Firefighters found the body of the teenager inside the burning trailer. Later, police found the grandmother hiding in the woods. She will be eligible for parole in 13 years. Montague County District Attorney Jack McGaughey said the grandmother had planned to shoot herself but ran out of bullets.
Investigators determined no motive but McGaughey said Holmes indicated a conflict with her grandson she did not want discussed during a trial. "It seemed to be very important to her that her grandson's conduct toward her not be an issue brought out in court," the prosecutor said.
