Ex-boyfriend and fiancée behind fatal stabbing, shooting of Texas mom

Young mom Alyssa Burkett was stalked during a bitter custody battle and was later brutally murdered — a shocking case that gripped the community.
Investigators say her ex, Andrew Beard, carried out the killing and admitted his role, and his then-fiancée Holly Elkins was found to have helped plan and manipulate him (including attempts at disguises).
The case ended with long federal sentences and a grieving family — including baby Willow — left to pick up the pieces, a story about justice, manipulation, and the toll on loved ones.
