An 83-year-old Texas man has been charged with murder after he allegedly admitted he shot dead his 78-year-old ex-girlfriend in a fit of jealousy over her new relationship, police say. Wilson Elliott of Trinity, Texas, is being held in lieu of $1 million bail in connection with the death of Sharon Radebaugh, a retired nurse. Rowlett Police “determined this was not a random act of violence but rather an act that stemmed from a previous relationship,” they said in a press release.
