Sharon Vaughn, 34, was found dead at her Copperas Cove, Texas home on July 20, 1978, of a single shotgun wound to the chest. Her death was ruled a suicide at the time and no autopsy was performed. The discovery came one day after her divorce from Jack Wayne Reeves was finalized.

Decades later investigators reopened the case after a series of suspicious events tied to Reeves, including the disappearance and later recovery of the remains of his fourth wife, Emelita Villa, and questions surrounding the accidental drowning of his third wife, Myong, near Lake Whitney. A new autopsy on Vaughn’s remains concluded the death was a homicide, and a Coryell County grand jury indicted Reeves in March 1995.

At trial the jury convicted Reeves of murdering Sharon Vaughn; he received a 35-year sentence for her death and an additional sentence relating to Villa. Does anyone have memories or information about Sharon’s life in Copperas Cove or the days around July 1978?
