Description
During a Labor Day Weekend spent with family at Cedar Creek Lake, Jerry Mack Watkins and his wife, Shelley Watkins, get into an argument on Monday September 6th, that ends up with Jerry Mack taking the couple’s two daughters home, leaving Shelley time at the lake to cool off. Shelley arrives home from the lake at 11pm that night and the argument that began at the lake continues with Jerry Mack and Shelley arguing in the garage of their Corsicana, Texas, home. The argument escalates and Shelley tells Jerry Mack she is leaving and taking the girls with her. Jerry Mack takes Shelley's car keys and tells her she can leave, but she will not be taking the children. According to Jerry Mack Watkins, his wife, Shelley Watkins, leaves the home, by herself, on foot, at 11:30pm. And he went inside the house and went to bed.
