BREAKING: Evidence connects Buford Pusser to wife’s murder, authorities say
Authorities say the case file reveals inconsistences in Buford Pusser’s account of what happened the day Pauline was murdered.
TBI says evidence suggests Pauline was shot outside of the vehicle and later moved inside the vehicle. Evidence also suggests the gunshot wound Bufford received was self-inflicted.
It was said that if Buford was alive today, there would be probable cause to charge him in connection to the shooting.
We will have full coverage of these new developments in our evening shows tonight on WBBJ-7.
