A Jefferson County grand jury has indicted a Port Arthur man for the murder of his girlfriend.
Daniel Shackleford, 34, was indicted Wednesday for the Feb. 24 death of Aletha Gonzalez at their home in the 2100 block of Birch Street in Port Acres.
Shackleford called 911 saying he had come home and found Gonzalez on the floor with a television on top of her. Her injuries were consistent with being assaulted, in that she had bruising on her face, neck, arms and body, according to the probable cause affidavit.
An autopsy showed she died as a result of blunt force trauma to the head and suffered a large hemorrhage to the right side of her head.
Shackleford reportedly made a statement to police saying he and Gonzalez had had a verbal disturbance that turned physical.
The murder was the first of the year in Port Arthur.
