When the 16-year-old Erin Caffey was asked by her parents to stop seeing her 18-year-old boyfriend, Charlie Wilkinson, she decided that the only way out was to get her entire family killed. The horrific mass murder shocked the entire nation in 2008.
Erin lived in Alba, Texas, with her parents, Penny and Terry, and two brothers, 8-year-old Tyler and 13-year-old Matthew. The family was devout Christians and part of the Miracle Faith Baptist Church, where all five of them contributed to the choir as musicians and singers. However, when Erin met Wilkinson at a Sonic fast-food restaurant while working as a part-time waitress, things quickly changed.
