Donald Don Frazier was a 69-year-old pastor and gospel musician who was shot and killed at his home in Harris, Texas, on July 4, 2014, during a burglary. Frazier, armed with his handgun, went to investigate and encountered the intruder in the backyard. A brief struggle followed; the intruder disarmed Frazier and fatally shot him with his own gun.

Police later found 30-year-old Daniel Travis Durham a few blocks from the scene, reportedly covered in blood and matching the description given by Frazier’s wife. He was arrested and, after trial, convicted of murder and sentenced to 50 years in prison. Prosecutors said Durham’s methamphetamine use contributed to paranoid behavior that led to the break-in.

Frazier was remembered as a compassionate man of faith who had counseled inmates and played gospel music for over 40 years. Did anyone in the Deerfield Village area see or hear anything unusual that night?
