Charges against two of the four people suspected of being involved in the murder of 35-year-old Cody Stradford have been amended to capital murder, meaning the death penalty could be on the table.
Forty-two-year-old Allison Cunningham and 28-year-old Ryan James Lindsey, both of Mountain Home, are now facing the amended charges. They were both arrested in Hidalgo County, Texas.
