Nearly two weeks after officials made an arrest in the 2010 murder of former NBA player Lorenzen Wright, new details have surfaced, implicating his ex-wife, Sherra Wright Robinson.

On July 18, 2010, the father of six was last seen leaving his ex-wife’s home with money and a box of drugs. Robinson told officials that she overheard the former baller talking about flipping weight for some cash, just before he left in a car with someone she had not known. The next day, dispatchers received a call from Wright’s phone, gunshots were heard in the background but the operators failed to report it, as they were unaware if it was in their jurisdiction.

On the 22nd, Wright’s mother filed a missing persons report, and days after that, officials were able to link the 911 call to the report. On July 28th, Wright’s body was found in a field near the woods. Seven years later, the murder weapon was found, which lead to the arrest of 46-year-old Billy Turner, who has since been charged with Wright’s murder.
