HOUSTON – A woman has been charged with murder after she told officials she killed her boyfriend in self-defense Tuesday evening at a home in northwest Harris County Tuesday, according to the Harris County Sheriff’s Office.
At around 5:45 p.m., Jonie Sablatura called 911 to report that she had shot her 41-year-old boyfriend, Aaron Conner, at a home in the 11200 block of Kirwin Lane. By the time deputies arrived, the man was dead, Sgt. Jason Brown said at the scene.
