On September 10, 2022, Deborah Ann Wright, aged 63, and her husband, Lawrence Edward Wright, were tragically found deceased in their home on South Louisiana Street in Little Rock, Arkansas. Both had been fatally shot. Deborah was a dedicated nurse, missionary, and evangelist, deeply involved in her community and church activities. She was a member of St.
Peter Missionary Baptist Church in Little Rock, under the leadership of Pastor Billy Burris, and was known for her passion to serve God's will.
The investigation into their deaths led to the arrest of 15-year-old Deuntray Lewis, who was charged with the murders. Reports indicated that the Wrights had taken Lewis into their home as foster parents just weeks before the incident. This tragic event highlights the dangers that can arise even when individuals act out of kindness and a desire to help those in need.
The community mourned the loss of the Wrights, who were remembered for their charitable hearts and unwavering faith. Family and friends described Deborah as someone who left this world doing what she loved the most—giving her heart to everybody and anybody.
As of now, there are no further updates on the case. The investigation remains ongoing, and authorities continue to seek information that could shed light on the circumstances leading up to this tragic event.
