A woman faces charges after allegedly running her husband’s vehicle off the road, resulting in his death. Tamara Lachelle Wood, 37, has been charged with second-degree murder and reckless driving after the incident involving her husband, Justin Wood, 40.

Officers responded to a crash on Highway 59 at approximately 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday. They discovered Justin Wood next to a heavily damaged 2005 BMW SUV, where he was pronounced dead at the scene.

The investigation revealed that Tamara Wood drove a 2007 Volvo XC-90 and told troopers that both vehicles were traveling at high speeds. She explained that an argument had occurred at their son’s basketball game regarding her husband’s conversations with another woman.

Witnesses reported that Tamara’s vehicle closely followed Justin’s moments before the crash, with one estimating their speed to be over 100 miles per hour. Justin’s mother stated he had been contemplating divorce and received a desperate call from him saying, “Momma, she’s trying to run me off the road!”

Following the incident, the District 22 District Attorney’s Office issued an arrest warrant on Friday, with Tamara being apprehended on Tuesday. She is currently held in the custody of the Seminole County Sheriff’s Office.

District Attorney Erik Johnson indicated that they will pursue accountability for her actions that led to Justin Wood’s death. The couple leaves behind four children who now face the loss of their father.

Tannersville, PA – A New York woman was apprehended after allegedly threatening to stab her 13-year-old daughter and subsequently leaving her at a closed convenience store. Tonimarie A. Barrett, 42, faces charges of endangering the welfare of a child, making terroristic threats, and recklessly endangering another person.

Prompted by a call about an abandoned child, police responded to a Turkey Hill convenience store early on Sunday around 5:19 a.m. First responders found Barrett’s daughter unharmed but alone at the location.

Barrett and her daughter had left a residence in Long Pond, Pennsylvania, around midnight for New Rochelle, New York. During their journey, Barrett stopped at a closed gas station to input directions into a GPS, where an argument ensued between mother and daughter that escalated quickly.

According to police reports, Barrett threatened to stab her daughter during the dispute. She then left her child at the closed business and traveled to a nearby gas station in Effort, Pennsylvania.

While at the gas station, Barrett did not attempt to search for her daughter or contact authorities. She later told police that after her daughter exited the vehicle, she realized her car required oil, prompting her departure to Effort.

Barrett was arrested by police and transported to Monroe County Correctional Facility, where she is awaiting arraignment before a district magistrate.
