Teri Bigoski Mares was 64 when she was found dead from a gunshot wound at her home in El Rio Estates on Riverside Avenue in Anderson, California, on October 27, 2023. The Shasta County Sheriff’s Office identified her granddaughter, 30-year-old Crystal Ann Odom, as the primary suspect. Odom had reportedly been expelled from the residence over theft allegations and is said to have returned seeking revenge.

Authorities located and arrested Odom at a hotel in Redding; officials say she confessed to the killing and to assaulting another female relative who was present. Does anyone have information about the household dynamics or about visits to El Rio Estates around late October 2023 that could help clarify what happened?
