THE CONVICTED KILLER OF A TEXAS FIREFIGHTER TELLS HER SIDE OF THE STORY IN AN ENCORE OF "48 HOURS: CHACEY POYNTER: WITNESS TO MURDER"

Chacey Poynter, a Texas woman convicted in the 2016 murder of her husband, University Park Fire Department Captain Robert Poynter, tells her story about what happened the night he died to correspondent Peter Van Sant, in an encore of 48 HOURS: "Chacey Poynter: Witness to Murder," to be broadcast Saturday, August 8 (10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Robert Poynter was shot in the head while sitting in his wife's Jeep, on an unmaintained country road in Royse City, Texas. His wife, Chacey Poynter, told police she'd called her husband for help after she claimed her Jeep was stuck in mud. She claims when Robert Poynter got in to help move the vehicle, he was shot by a man who emerged from the dark. She told police she had no idea who fired the fatal shot. From the moment police arrived at the scene, they were skeptical of Poynter's story of what happened. Everything she told them - in breathless and halting sentences - was captured by police body cameras, including an admission that she was having problems in her marriage. The investigation into the murder exposed the fractured relationship between the Poynters, including a twisted plot for killing the 47-year-old firefighter, whose wife, then 29, had carried on multiple extramarital affairs. 48 HOURS and Van Sant investigate the case through interviews with law enforcement officers, Robert Poynter's daughters and his ex-wife, Chacey Poynter's defense attorneys, and the prosecutors.
