Unbelievable. There's more to this murder story than is being released.

#1.1 Curious on 08/10/09 at 07:52 PM

Do you think it could have been the 2 "suspects" that beat her???? Ha Ha

does her dad have an alibi?

You r an idiot!!!

#2.2 Anonymous on 08/10/09 at 05:57 PM

People are such idiots,the majority of the ones speculating have no earthly idea what happened,if the police don't know for sure,how could you? Misery loves company,thats probably why you want that woman to be guilty.

I like you , Georgie boy. I bet you have ...I meant are a cute lil' thang.

#4 country folks on 08/10/09 at 10:11 AM

makes you wonder don't it? wonder if she withdrew any funds from bank before she "allegedly" killed Buzz. Now the house burns.must have thought she would't get caught and get more insurance money, Just my thouhts and probley alot of other people.we'll see when trial comes up. VERY INTRESTING.alot of twists to this one.

#4.1 anon on 08/10/09 at 10:44 AM

She is still in jail...how's she gonna set a fire from Lamar County?? Now, that's not to say that she couldn't have made a phone call. Maybe that insurance money will help pay for her legal fees?? Maybe someone was just really mad at her and felt this was the best way to get revenge... what a twisted story this is.

She's being helt in the Upson County jail and not Lamar County Jail.

#5 Tanya on 08/10/09 at 10:27 AM

There goes evidence- up in smoke!!

#6 Anonymous on 08/10/09 at 11:26 AM

Has no one even considered that this might be a revenge crime? Why does everyone assume that it was to destroy evidence???? Don't you think the police have already gathered all the evidence from the house, and that attempting to destroy evidence would be fruitless at this point?

#7 Concerned on 08/10/09 at 11:51 AM

She's going to hell if she doesn't repent! How could someone be so cruel!!! I wonder if she had a drug habit!!!

#7.1 fred on 08/10/09 at 05:52 PM

Do you have one?

#8 rtvols on 08/10/09 at 12:14 PM

This is soooooooooooooo strange.

#9 duh on 08/10/09 at 12:26 PM

Duh people, she couldn't have burned the house down, she is still sitting in jail. Keep up with details better before you comment.

#9.1 Anonymous on 08/10/09 at 02:36 PM

Thank you!!!

#9.2 just a thought on 08/10/09 at 02:43 PM

Umm...I think we all figured that out but you never know someone's connections and loyalty to the accused and/or victim...you just never know these days...or it could just be a really bad year

#10 Concerned on 08/10/09 at 01:06 PM

Duh...we know she's in jail! Where's her dad?? DUH!!! maybe he hired someone to do it!!!!

#10.1 JOHN on 08/10/09 at 07:37 PM

U are a idiot,join the ploice dept.or go get a life!

#10.2 carl on 08/10/09 at 07:50 PM

And maybe you don't have a life so,you get excited by the lives of others.

#10.3 Anonymous on 08/10/09 at 08:17 PM

I mean police force!!

#11 Sheila Tolley on 08/10/09 at 01:15 PM

The timing of this fire does not look like an act of God, does it? If it was..oh well...if it wasn't...I hope someone pays BIG TIME!!

#12 Anonymous on 08/10/09 at 02:52 PM

Who ARE you people? Back up the crazy train a bit--you're apparently headed to Salem, Massachusetts in the late 1600's. We have a Constitution now, remember??? Fair trial and all that--ring a bell?

#13 All you posters on 08/10/09 at 03:51 PM

You idiots should be on the Jerry Springer Show. You are all rednecks and this gossip is the fuel that lights your fire. So sad Pike County is filled with toothless Redman chewers like yourself.

#13.1 Anonymous on 08/11/09 at 05:24 AM

Uhm...you posted.

#14 greg on 08/10/09 at 04:27 PM

I wonder where her dad was Sunday night at 9 pm???

#14.1 john on 08/10/09 at 07:41 PM

I wonder where you were greg,you sound just stupid enough to be a suspect!

#15 country folks on 08/10/09 at 06:06 PM

Nobody said 'SHE'burned the house down. awful funny thou the gate has been closed there for over 2 weeks. and all of sudden it's open for a few days. and another thing a relative of hers has been going in an out there VERY often. oh an something eles remeber the old saying[ MONEY TALKS AN B>S> WALKS]
duhhhhhhhh. use commom sense here people.

#15.1 arthur on 08/10/09 at 07:47 PM

You seem to know an awful lot about the comings and goings at that house,where were you Sunday night? And by the way you don't sound like you have money,so take your B.S.and walk!!!

#16 anonymous on 08/10/09 at 06:59 PM

Hmmmm...she's is jail, so she couldn't have done it. Hmmmm...lets see....I bet it was that black guy and that white guy with blue eyes in the white Grand Am !!!

#17 jcb on 08/10/09 at 07:49 PM

Whatever happened to the idea of "innocent until proven guilty"? I'm quite sure that if this was YOUR family, you'd not be running your mouoths the way you are doing here. But, then again, maybe you would. This just shows your ignorance and cold-heartedness to a family that is going through a great ordeal. It must be nice to have all the time in the world to mind everyone else's business. What's that saying...those that live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones??

#18 Jake on 08/10/09 at 08:22 PM

Just a thought....maybe this is part of the scheme to make it look as if someone is out to get Teresa. Or maybe someone didn't want to be making house payments while she sits in jail!! The house would not be easy to sell. The insurance money would also help with legal fees. Who knows?? Lots of twists and turns in this mystery!!

#18.1 anonymous on 08/11/09 at 05:39 AM

the house was paid off as Buzz had it built.no debt.

#19 country folks on 08/10/09 at 08:29 PM

Well Arthur you are not a real smart person are you? and I do have more common sense then you have . this page is for comments on the news . oh the call was on the scanner whats up with that you can't afford to buy one.

#20 srb on 08/10/09 at 08:40 PM

I do feel sorry for both families. I know how it feels to have a someone murder someone you hold so dear. My mother was murdered years ago and the killer was never caught. If Teresa is found guilty, I hope that Buzz's family can move forward in somewhat knowing "justice was served". I also feel heartache for her father and family for putting them through such a terrible experience. I'm praying for both families. May God see you through these sad times.

#21 Ecw on 08/10/09 at 09:30 PM

She probably "rented" her house to one of her cell mates who made bond. Be nice to check inmate account at the jail to see if she moved any $ from her account to somebody else so they could have bail money to get freed.

#22 whoever on 08/10/09 at 09:55 PM

Sick people, get a job, find a woman or man, take a walk, take a ride, go to a movie, bowling or better yet just go to church and have everyone pray for you stupid dumb a**es on here. I have never seen or read as must bull that you guys post. This is just all un called for. Great thing hapen to good people but some of you on here I'm just not sure how to put it to you except you will get your day, don't cry and hide cause you will deserve it...Count down and when something happens in your life I wish it to be bad cause you deserveit.

#23 your all idiots on 08/10/09 at 10:47 PM

for all you defending this heartless woman you all got proven to be idiots who didnt know what you were talking about when you swore up and down she didnt murder her husband straight up shot him at the end of the driveway. who's to say she didn't have connections to the house burning down. we don't know. there are plenty of what if's and what might have happened. none of us are investigators none of us are policemen working this case so you all need to shut up and just wait it out. justice will be served for those involved and the answer will be solved soon enough.

#24 conerned on 08/11/09 at 12:01 AM

This is very sad!!! I think it's very shady!! Does anyone know how to contct the producers of SNAPPED!!!!

#24.1 Me! Pick me! on 08/11/09 at 07:30 AM

Try Oxygen.com!

#25 Anonymous on 08/11/09 at 05:26 AM

Hellooooooo....."justice will be served" also includes a trial, remember???? Hello? Trial? Ring a bell?

#26 Karen Bennett on 08/11/09 at 06:47 AM

Maybe Buzz said - hey you can take me, but you ain't taken the house!...but on a serious note - this is horrible! We moved to Pike to get away from ClayCo & there's more drama & crime down here than I ever imagined!

#26.1 me on 08/11/09 at 08:37 AM

then be my guest and move back!!!

#27 Anonymous on 08/11/09 at 09:42 AM

as a member of buzz's family i can only speculate as to why the house was set ablaze....i surmise that someone had alot of anger over what teresa has done...and with her being locked up in lamar county this was the action they chose to voice that anger. no one is angrier and saddened more than buzz's family and we all miss him tremendously but i still cant grasp how someone could do this..while teresa lived there...so did buzz...it was his house too.....i hope justice is served but jimmy bobby carol and the rest of the family have been through enough...let the courts take care of this matter...this whole thing has become an endless pit of despair.

#28 Anonymous on 08/12/09 at 04:23 PM

I just hope this is on an episode of SNAPPED. That would make it even better.
