Big Sandy Man’s Conviction Upheld

GILMER — An appeals court in Texarkana has upheld the guilty verdict and sentence of an Upshur County man in the shooting death of his sister. The 6th Court of Appeals upheld the verdict against Glenn Wade Myers Jr., 56, of Big Sandy. Last June Myers was sentenced to 60 years in prison for the shooting death of Cindy Espinosa, 52. Authorities say Myers became upset when Espinosa asked him to pay for repairs to a water well located on their shared property. He is said to have grabbed a shotgun and shot her in the face.
