Theresa Tolliver and Tech Sgt. Derrick Tolliver

As seen on Season 24 of Oxygen's Snapped, Theresa Tolliver was convicted of killing her husband, Tech Sgt. Derrick Tolliver by hiring two hit men to kill him. She is the perfect example of why one should not kill their active military spouse for life insurance benefits.

She was tried in federal court, convicted, and

sentenced to life.

Her appeal includes:
Defendant Theresa Tolliver and victim Derrick Tolliver were married in 1983.1 Derrick was an active-duty member of the Air Force and stationed in San Antonio, Texas. In October 1998, Theresa and Derrick separated, and Theresa petitioned for divorce a few months later.      The court issued a temporary restraining order, which, among other things, prevented either of the parties from entering the other’s home without permission, prevented either party from
changing the beneficiary on his or her life insurance policy, and granted primary placement of the couple’s two minor children, Donald and Derrick Jr., to Derrick.
This order was to remain in effect during the pendency of the divorce proceedings.      In the fall of 2000, Theresa and Derrick agreed to a divorce settlement, and in November 2000, they were awaiting court approval of the
settlement before the divorce could become final.

           Around the time she initiated divorce proceedings, Theresa began dating Emanuel Fonzie, who was approximately 18 years her junior. According to the evidence presented at trial, in the fall of 2000, Theresa and Fonzie hatched aplan to have Derrick murdered before the court approved the divorce settlement and Theresa was no longer the beneficiary of Derrick’s life insurance policies.
The two planned to hire Fonzie’s friend, Jeremy Farr, who lived in Arkansas, to commit the murder.

Cynthia Coates and Corey Storey

According to the Kokomo Tribune, Coates was sentenced in November 2016 to 20 years behind bars following a plea deal brokered just days before she was scheduled to stand trial on a count of murder. Instead, she entered into an agreement pleading guilty to a lesser charge of voluntary manslaughter, a Level 2 felony. At the time of his death, Story was working as an in-home caregiver to Tommie Hammock Jr., who found his body in his home on Oct. 25, 2014, after Coates, his friend, drove him home from a birthday party, according to a probable-cause affidavit. Coates was at the party previously, but left to get her car washed. Hammock was noted in the affidavit as saying she returned to the party two hours later, but the car was unwashed. It was suspected she shot Story in that time frame. Her victim was Corey Storey.
