Deborah Pieringer and Loyd and Agnes Courtney


In season 24, episode 11 the story of  Deborah Pieringer and  Loyd and Agnes Courtney, her parents. It does not end well for Loyd and Agnes.

Snapped describes the show as When the bodies of two grandparents are tragically found left for dead, investigators toil to determine whether the slayings were motivated by simmering vengeance or insatiable greed.

Her appeal includes:
Loyd Courtney worked for the Fort Worth Police Department for approximately fifty years.   He first served as a member of the police department and later became a fingerprint expert.   On November 2, 2001, neighbors noticed that Mr. Courtney did not leave for his afternoon shift at the police department.   At approximately 5:30 p.m., Officer Mike Galusha was called out to the Courtneys' home to perform a welfare check.   After obtaining entry into the home with a neighbor's key, Galusha discovered the bodies of Mr. Courtney and his wife Agnes, which had been beaten with four cast-iron skillets, stabbed, and cut with a knife.   Mr. Courtney was found on the kitchen floor near the dining room table with a typed note resting on his thigh.   The note, implying that the murders were revenge for Mr. Courtney's role in sending a defendant to prison in his capacity as a fingerprint analyst with the Fort Worth Police Department, had a paring knife inserted through it.   Mrs. Courtney was found in a back bedroom lying face down in a pool of blood.   The medical examiner testified that Mr. Courtney suffered at least seven cut wounds, twelve stab wounds, and seventeen blunt force trauma injuries on his body.   Likewise, Mrs. Courtney had seven cut wounds, fifteen stab wounds, and seventeen blunt force trauma injuries.

The police found the pieces of four cast-iron skillets, which were shattered in the attacks, as well as a broken end table.   There were no signs of forced entry into the home and all the doors were locked.   In the kitchen, the wire to the telephone had been cut, and in one of the bedrooms, the wire to the caller identification box had been cut and the computer dumped on the floor.   An analysis of the computer showed that Microsoft Word was accessed at 9:57 a.m., that it was the only program used on the computer that day, and that a document was sent to the printer at 10:01 a.m. The computer was shutdown at 11:19 a.m.
