TYLER, Texas — A woman was arrested this week for allegedly stealing the wig off the body of a dead woman at an East Texas funeral home.
Tonya Annette Boyd, 55, was booked into the Smith County Jail on a theft of property from a human corpse or grave in connection with an incident at a Tyler funeral home that was reported on May 23.
The funeral director told police that on May 22, Boyd came into the preparation room and removed a wig from the head of a deceased woman. The director said Boyd had been told to leave earlier that day. Another employee said they saw Boyd with the wig later that day, an arrest affidavit said.
On May 23, the director noticed the deceased woman was missing the wig that was meant to be on her head for the funeral, the document read. All employees reportedly knew what Boyd looks like because of several contacts with her over the years.
The officer wrote in that affidavit that Boyd is known to be a transient who uses multiple drugs. She has been involved in several criminal acts around the funeral home, including theft.
She remains in the Smith County Jail on a $75,000 bond. She was also booked in on prior public intoxication charges, records show.
I think that’s big Mike’s sister.
I agree with you on this one.
That’s a man, baby!
So....what’re you in for?

Was the wig called Autumn Sunrise?
An excellent question bro. 😆
LOL. I knew somebody would say that, sooner or later.
I knew from the story it had to be one of them.
Thank God there wasn’t a big screen TV in the coffin....she could have strained herself and sued the mortician...
