The Blue-Eyed Butcher: Susan Wright's Shocking 193-Stab Killing
In January 2003 a quiet suburban home in northwest Harris County, Texas, became the scene of one of the most gruesome domestic murders in recent memory. Susan Lucille Wright a 26-year-old mother of two, lured her 34-year-old husband, Jeffrey Jeff Wright, into their bedroom with the promise of sex. Once there she tied him spread-eagle to the bed using neckties and bathrobe sashes while he was naked and vulnerable. What followed was a frenzied attack: Susan stabbed Jeff a staggering 193 times with two different knives. The assault targeted nearly every part of his body, including seven wounds to the groin area. Many stabs occurred while Jeff was still alive, though he rapidly bled out from the sheer volume of trauma. Afterward, Susan dragged his body on a dolly to the backyard. She buried him in a shallow grave in a hole Jeff had previously dug for a landscaping fountain. She then covered the site with dirt, mulch, and patio furniture to hide the evidence.
