Matthew Ryan Bubba Caffey was 13 when he was killed on March 1, 2008, in Alba, Texas. He and his mother, Penny Caffey, and his younger brother, Tyler Caffey, were murdered inside the family home; the sole survivor was the father, Terry Caffey, who escaped after being shot multiple times. Matthew was a student at Rains Middle School and attended Miracle Faith Baptist Church in Emory.
Wilkinson, Charles Waid, and Bobbi Johnson took part in the attack: Wilkinson and Waid entered the house in the early morning while Erin and Johnson waited outside. After shooting Terry and Penny Caffey, the attackers killed Matthew and Tyler and set the house on fire.
Erin Caffey, Charlie Wilkinson, Charles Waid, and Bobbi Johnson were arrested and charged with capital murder. Sentences reported include life with parole for Erin, life without parole for Wilkinson and Waid, and 40 years for Johnson. Does anyone have information about the family, the neighborhood, or that night that could shed more light on these events?
