Landman calls a lady about some property San Augustine to lease her mineral interest. She claimed to have 100% interest in the property, but the landman says no, you only own such-and-such percent.
So the lady says, "Just google my name. Vennie Wolf. You'll see."
Her parents owned three properties, on which her brother Clair Audrey Wolf ran several businesses, like oil recycling and garbage collection. Upon their parents' deaths, it's discovered he's been just dumping oil out into the ground, and piling trash up. He did hundreds of thousands in environmental damage, which the sisters had to pay out of the $2 million inheritance.
So the sisters take steps to reduce his share of the inheritance, presumably to compensate for the cleanup. He responded by sending her a box of candy with a pipe bomb and a note that said, "To Vennie. Hope you enjoy this."
The bomb blew off some of her fingers, damaged her hip and face, but she survived. Clair was arrested and sent to the penitentiary, where he met his fellow inmate, William Maceachran. He arranged for Maceachran to kill his sisters and brothers-in-law, instructed him to kill them in just the right order so that the estate would land in the hands of Clair Wolf. When Maceachran is released, he loses his nerve and goes to the authorities.
The state took custody of his remaining interest in their parents estate and awarded it to Vennie, so she purportedly now owns 100%.
