A 50-year-old real estate agent is to be arraigned today on a murder charge in the shooting of her 45-year-old husband, San Diego County sheriff’s deputies said Tuesday.
The body of Thomas Monroe Rader was found Monday in a back bedroom of his home in the 200 block of Knoll Road. Sheriff’s deputies arrested his wife, Ann White Rader, who reported the shooting.
Sheriff’s deputies responding to the report were met at the door by Ann Rader, who directed them to the body. Paramedics pronounced Thomas Rader dead at the scene.
Homicide detectives said Rader appeared to have been shot several times in the head. An autopsy was scheduled. Authorities said they also found weapons at the home.
Ann Rader was booked on suspicion of murder and is being held without bail at the Las Colinas jail for women. Her arraignment is set for today at the Vista courthouse.
