Murder charges have been filed in the burning death of Texas child-welfare caseworker Terry Leigh Lee, allegedly at the hands of her new boyfriend.
John Marshall Dodd, 41, is behind bars, accused of pouring gasoline on his girlfriend of just three months during a fight, setting her on fire and then lying to police about it, saying Lee had been burned in a kitchen accident.
More than 90 percent of Lee's body was scorched in the attack late Saturday night at her home in Conroe, Texas, near Houston. The 44-year-old caseworker of Child Protective Services died Sunday night of her injuries at an area hospital.

Aren't they trained professionally to see signs of abuse in relationships? Had she bothered to check...he had even served time for sexual assault! OMG! It is horrible he did this to her, but I find it so strange she of all people allowed herself to be put in such a position with this type of person. What on earth was she thinking by not having him checked out and not seeing the red flags?!
I am so sorry she suffered horrifically. Bless her and her family.
