EUCHA, OK. (THECOUNT) — Chouteau, Oklahoma husband and wife, 50-year-old Brian Edward Anderson and 42-year-old Allie Beth Anderson, are charged with injecting a woman with methamphetamine two years ago and videotaping her as she asked for help. 41-year-old Melissa Vermillion then died of a meth overdose.
Court records show the Andersons were charged Tuesday with first-degree murder in the October 2017 death of at the Anderson’s home in Eucha, about 65 miles (105 kilometers) east of Tulsa.
Affidavits say an informant in August linked the two to Vermillion’s death and that she may have been killed to prevent her from testifying against the couple in a separate case. The document says the Andersons face drug charges in another county, reports WBNG.
Jail records show both Andersons are in custody. An attorney listed for Brian Anderson did not immediately return a phone call Saturday for comment.
