Description

In the quiet town of Florence, Colorado, the murder of beloved funeral home director Byron Griffy, 76, left the community in shock. Found dead in an empty farmhouse, Byrons death was ruled a homicide. The crime scene, with no signs of forced entry and unusual blood spatter, suggested a staged scene. Byron had recently moved due to alleged break-ins, and his valuable coin collection was entrusted to two local funeral home owners, Anthony Wright and Charles Giebler. The investigation focused on Wright and Giebler, with Giebler dying of natural causes before trial. Wright was charged with first-degree murder, but his 2015 trial ended in a mistrial. In 2017, Wright pleaded guilty to accessory to first-degree murder, receiving a sentence of ten years probation, maintaining his innocence.
