TEXAS WOMAN ARRESTED FOR MURDER AND ARSON IN CONNECTION WITH COMMON-LAW SPOUSE’S DEATH
A shocking crime has unfolded in Texas, where 40-year-old Faith Paige Goynes has been taken into custody for allegedly shooting and burning her common-law spouse, Tomas Calavera Jr. Goynes is accused of murder and arson resulting in death or serious injury and is currently being held at the Calhoun County Jail.
The investigation began when Calhoun County officials requested a welfare check for Calavera’s child, prompting the Bandera County Sheriff’s Office to contact Calavera’s father. Concerned for his son’s safety, the father visited Calavera’s residence but was unable to locate him, leading to increased involvement from local law enforcement.
Deputies from the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office searched the property and discovered Calavera’s lifeless body in a closet, with evidence indicating he had been shot in the face. The 30-year-old’s death was promptly investigated as a homicide.
As the court proceedings progress, securing justice for Tomas Calavera Jr. and providing his grieving family with answers remain top priorities. This case underscores the importance of swift and cooperative responses from law enforcement agencies in investigating severe crimes.
