A year-old woman could be put to death for the murder of her husband after evidence was presented in court suggesting he was not the first she has killed. At that time the jury also learned that Hunter killed Thomas for financial gain and that it was something she'd been planning for months.
Thomas was found shot to death in the sleeper section of his semitruck on November 4, The truck, which he drove for work, was parked in a dirt lot off of a busy intersection in Moreno Valley.

When deciding her sentence the jury was shown evidence that another husband of hers was murdered in Inglewood in Hunter was interviewed immediately after Thomas's death, but wasn't arrested until Briuana Hunter, the defense's year-old daughter, told the jury that she and her mother spent months planning Thomas's death, the Riverside Press-Enterprise reported. She spoke to the court after accepting a plea deal.
Those policies, police found, would double if Thomas was murdered instead of dying from a natural cause or as a result of an accident. At first I didn't know what she meant, but later on it became clear. She was never able to collect any of the money because she never obtained a death certificate.
