Investigators said the victim, who required the use of a wheelchair, was reported missing before his body was found in Dutton Lake back in 2020.
Two murder suspects are behind bars nearly four years after detectives found a missing man's body in Dutton Lake.
Authorities also charged Shaun Sandles in Howey's murder for allegedly being Richardson's accomplice. Sandles was already incarcerated at the Powledge Unit of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice on unrelated charges out of Harris County, according to deputies. The sheriff's office said Richardson had been caring for Howey at the Caring Hands Group Home in Harris County. Records show that Howey received a large settlement from a personal injury case in May 2020, in which Richardson was the suspect.
Detectives believe that Howey had threatened to report Richardson for the theft of his settlement money before his body was found on Oct. 13, 2020, in Dutton Lake on FM 2354.
