California Man and Girlfriend Arrested for Murder of 97-Year-Old Grandmother

Sacramento deputies discovered the victim's body in a car trunk after a welfare check revealed signs of a ransacked home.

The body of a 97-year-old woman was found in the trunk of a car in her garage during a welfare check in Sacramento County, California.
Authorities arrested her grandson, Brian Wiggins, 40, and his girlfriend, Dozsha Beckwith, 31, in connection with the murder.
Investigators allege the suspects forced their way into the victim's home after she declined to let them stay and that Wiggins fatally beat her.
Deputies noted signs of a ransacked home, including missing carpet and broken safes, which led them to search the garage where the victim was discovered.
Wiggins faces a murder charge, while Beckwith has been charged with burglary and accessory after the fact; both are being held without bail and are scheduled to appear in court on Tuesday.
