Elizabeth Claire Caughman, 42, of Bishop, Texas, was killed on January 15, 2014; investigators determined her death was a homicide caused by a gunshot wound. A librarian at Bishop High School, she was found by her daughter and remembered for her dedication to family and faith and for the support she offered students through the school library.

Authorities identified Tommy Caughman, a brother-in-law who had been living with Elizabeth and her husband Jack Caughman, as the primary suspect. Deputies reported Tommy took several firearms, including one described as equivalent to an AK-47, and warned he was armed and dangerous while he was at large.

Elizabeth was born November 28, 1971, in Coushatta, Louisiana, to Nettie Daily and James Wood. The community mourned her loss and the school provided support for grieving students.
