Susan Lucille Wyche was born on April 24, 1976, in Houston, Texas, to Sue Wella (née Tschoepe) and Jimmy Lawrence Wyche. At the age of 17, she worked as a topless dancer at Gold Cup for two months. In 1997, while working as a restaurant waitress in Galveston, she met Jeff Wright and they married in 1998 while she was eight-and-a-half months pregnant with their first son, Bradley. In 2002, a daughter, Kailey was born. Mrs. Wright claims that her husband began to abuse her during the first few years of their marriage.
Susan Lucille Wright (born April 24, 1976) is an American criminal from Houston, Texas, who made headlines in 2003 for stabbing her husband, Jeff Wright, 193 times in an act of mariticide and then burying his body in their backyard. She was convicted of murder in 2004, and is currently serving a 20-year sentence at the Crain Unit in Gatesville, Texas. She was denied parole on June 12, 2014 and July 24, 2017.
According to evidence presented by the prosecution, on January 13, 2003, Susan Wright, 26, tied her husband, Jeff Wright, 34, to their bed and stabbed him 193 times with two different knives. She buried his body in their Houston backyard. She attempted to cover up the crime scene by painting the bedroom. The next day, Wright filed a false domestic abuse report in order to get a restraining order against her husband.
Wright’s murder trial had been nationally televised on CourtTV. Wright’s case was also profiled on Snapped in 2004, 48 Hours Mystery in 2005, on an E! special entitled Women Who Kill, on the Deadly Women episode “Lethal Love” on ID in 2011, and on an episode of Secret Lives of Stepford Wives in 2014.
On March 3, 2004, after more than five hours of deliberations, the jury convicted Wright of murder. Wright showed little reaction to the guilty verdict.
Thirteen months after her arraignment, Wright’s murder trial commenced on February 24, 2004. She had already pleaded not guilty to killing her husband by reason of self-defense.
In 2005, the Fourteenth Court of Appeals of Texas in Houston upheld Susan Wright’s conviction.
With a re-appeal in 2008, a new witness, Misty McMichael, the wife of former NFL Super Bowl champion Steve McMichael and ex-fiancée of Jeff Wright, came forward to tell her story of how she endured abuse and violence during her four-year relationship with Jeff Wright.
In 2009, the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals granted Wright a new sentencing hearing, after determining that Wright’s “counsel rendered ineffective assistance during the punishment phase of trial” in 2004.
On November 20, 2010, Wright had her sentence reduced to 20 years in prison, five years less than her original sentence. Wright has been eligible for parole since February 28, 2014, at the age of 38. She was denied parole on June 12, 2014 and July 24, 2017. Her next parole review date is in July 2020.
According to the evidence adduced during the 2010 punishment trial, it was shown that the prosecution’s theory that Jeff was tied to the bed was not supported by the medical examiner who excavated the body. The medical examiner testified that Jeff had a significant amount of cocaine in his body the night he died – so much so that Jeff’s body had not metabolized all the cocaine. The cocaine evidence supported the defense’s assertion that Jeff was intoxicated the night of his death, when he came home from a boxing class and punched his son. Jeff also had several knife wounds on his hands, forearms, back, and the backs of his legs, indicating defensive wounds inconsistent with being tied to a bed.
Wright’s case was also the subject of the 2012 Lifetime original movie, Blue Eyed Butcher, starring Sara Paxton as Wright and Lisa Edelstein as Kelly Siegler.
In 2014, Canadian director Chloe Bellande released a seventeen-minute short-film entitled Will of Fortune, which was inspired by the murder trials of Wright and Guy Turcotte, a man who had stabbed his two children to death in Canada. The film premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in May 2014.
