In this episode of Crime Watch Daily Updates: A successful trucking company owner who lived two separate lives: one with his wife and kids, and another with his girlfriend. This love triangle would eventually lead to the entrepreneur’s demise.
Bill Hall owned and operated a multimillion-dollar company, Bill Hall Jr. Trucking, and lived comfortably with his wife, Frances, and their two kids. But then there was 28-year-old Bonnie Contreras.
Bill and Bonnie began a relationship on the side, and Bill promised her he was getting a divorce from Frances. The two were so close they even sent Christmas cards out to friends. However, Bill wasn’t telling Bonnie the whole truth. Bill and Frances had not separated and were not planning to get divorced.
On October 10, 2013, everything changed for Bill, Bonnie, and Frances.
Frances was driving her Cadillac Escalade on Loop 1604 when she saw her husband pass by on his Harley Davidson motorcycle with Bonnie following close behind in Frances’ Range Rover. She made a U-turn and followed them, a decision that would ultimately have fatal consequences.
A high-speed chase ensued as Frances followed Bonnie and Bill. Bill’s motorcycle and Frances’ Escalade collided, and Bill crashed. He was rushed to a hospital, where he later died from his injuries.
Frances was arrested and went to trial for charges of murder and aggravated assault. She was convicted September 9, 2016, and could have spent life in prison, but the jury determined these were “Sudden Passion” crimes, which shortens the sentencing range significantly.
She served two years in prison and was released in September 2018.
But Frances’ legal troubles didn’t stop there. In August 2022, she turned herself in to Bexar County law enforcement officials a little over a month after she was indicted in Travis County on fraud charges. She allegedly falsified payroll information to receive lower insurance premiums. If convicted, she could face up to life in prison.
Now, let’s look back at the case where an affair and jealousy came to a deadly end.
What's wrong with some of you people. Bill is to blame for the cheating!! Bill had an affair with his cousins wife and they had a child together and this was within Frances and Bills happy part of their marriage ,this was way before he met Bonnie and when he did meet Bonnie he told Bonnie he was going to marry her and have children with her becuase he said Frances did not love him and they have been separated for years and he didn't live with her so Bonnie fell for it. And Bill never told Bonnie he had 3 children only 2 and never mentioned the one he had with his cousins wife. Bonnie took the line and sinker. Frances took Bills life. Miss . Frances should of just signed the divorce papers kept 70% of the company and find another man more loving and way better looking who valued her as a wife should. Frances is beautiful but sadly his intentions of divorcing her got to her. 30 years is alot.
At the end of the day Bill was cause of all this, he should’ve been faithful to his wife, Bonnie on the other hand she going to get what she deserves #KARMA
The girl was a money hunter and she warmed up to his BIG fat Wallet —
@stevenlillard4243 is Bonnie 😂😂😂 just read all the ridiculous replies she’s left on peoples comments.
Hispanic grinch and undercover for profit sociopath.
Why would she secretly video tape their most intimate graphic videos of them together? To later use them against him when he eventually want to leave him. (Over 4,000 pictured). Pure evil. I heard she was suing the widow a million dollars.
Try using a back drop for your podcast 😀
Frances was just arrested for insurance fraud too.. im sorry but this woman isn't as innocent n pure as everyone thinks she is. They all 3 were wrong! Regardless of the affair he didn't deserve death! Divorce him n take everything he has… let em have each other
He’s not a man.. he got his wife into this mess and now she has to pay for his actions. Shame.. Bonnie wow she’s something else and very toxic. I hope and pray the wife and family gets peace from all the husband put them through.
I despise home wreckers like Bonnie. The husband brought this piece of shit into their lives. SELFISH
That's B's 😢 that mistress not a human she should have been in prison
The truth is that his wife did not own him . Marriage is not a license to kill. He was openly in a relationship with his girlfriend and the scorned wife killed him. She is now facing huge charges for fraud.
He wasnt yours to have you mean you money cow was taken away your a gold digger if you had not have been speeding and breaking and knew frances woud not have time to break billy would still be here today and to right you shoul have gone to jail and your deluded what a f—y telling lies like that bonnie has ruined lives and will do it again
6:43 yeah warming up to his money. And this woman "Bonnie" is suing for "emotional distress" as she driving in the car with the Crime Watch guy 22:07 explaining that when she is driving sometimes she'll break down and cry. Surprised the guy didn't jump out then.This woman is a liar, manipulater, home wrecker. She's the one at fault here not the wife.
She said the wife didn't stop & that the husband was the Love of her life. But, she didn't stop either. She claimed he had just told her I love u Gorda which probably was a lie. And she said she loved him too pero no SE parro la huey😂
📌 she said you keep taking your husband back after infidelity and it being normal. 📍 Mistress acceptted being screwed over in advance & kept accepting him 😂 mistress Normalized it😂 babosa! 😂😂😂
If a mistress contacts the WIFE that's because she's desperate because the GUY ALREADY told the Mistress it's OVER! And the mistress wants the wife to react!
Did the mistress win her stupid case against the family.?
So the ridiculous lover is suingmore than a million dollars? Biatch needs to go to prison instead she was the culprit of the wife losing her mind, she had to see those videos of her husband having sex with a gold digger. Karma will get her, she will be old one day and already looks overweight like she called Frances a fat old lady, absThat man too, he aid for his cheating ways, sad but true. she will be cheated on for a younger woman too.p
super sad – Frances Hall, 59, the Helotes woman who spent two years in prison after killing her husband and assaulting his mistress is back in jail on a fraud charge, according to records. Four years after Hall was released from prison, she's back in the Bexar County jail for a warrant out of Travis County up in Austin.
sigh hope she is ok
Mistress 🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
WTH did I just watch. No one deserves to lose their life but I have a feeling the mistress would have probably ended up killing Bill had the wife not killed him accidentally. She is a piece of work, I bet she thought she was the only mistress.
"I don't know If I hit him or he hit me"
You were driving behind him. You hit him. Solved.
"I told you we would get you!"
Why was that not premeditated?? And why wasn't the daughter charged??
They conspired to murder and probably planned to kill the dad too.
They were both spoiled rotten, as was the daughter, anyone cheering this, should hope when this happens again their loved ones don't get hit head on, when someone who sees this only gets you 2 years finds their man's side chick.
Glad the rich kids learned their 💰 means they won't face the justice us regular people do early. That certainly won't lead to a life of crime, or being rude to everyone off the back of the guy they murdered..I mean "DAD"
Shame on the state of Texas, shame on every comment that cheers and supports feelings over human lives at risk, and shame on the narrative this tries to push.
Bonnie seems crazy but Francis getting only 2 years for killing the father of her children is absolute BS. this isn't a yasss queen moment.
Keep that same energy a guy rams a car because he sees his wife and a guy in it, mabye it's her boss and they're on lunch, mabye it's her lover..eh it's only 2 years may as well!
What the hell was she doing in the wife's SUV. Oh she loved him but she's sueing them for 2 million dollars. Gold digger
If you date a married person, you’re dating the whole family. You’re a side-piece and helping a married person get what they want, for free on your naivety. The mistress is a POS, she can’t know what is really going on in his family. I hope karma gets her really good
Mistress is pure evil.
No wonder he cheated, the wife has no self respect at all
Bonnie ain’t crying for that guys love bc she misses him, but bc she’s upset she lost her sugar daddy and is now broke.
I don’t feel bad for the mistress and the dude. Play stupid games win stupid prices
She shouldn’t have served a day. Let them be in that position and see how they react. Mistress in your own car, what more.
Mistress is underhanded manipulative psycho
Maybe unpopular opinion but the wife didn't have to follow them and so it's her fault bill is dead she doesn't follow them he doesn't die and to be honest of course the daughter hates the mistress but if bill doesn't cheat there's no mistress so he's not an innocent angel if he was such a good man he wouldn't have been a cheat
throw all three of them in the trash.
Lady suing the family, while driving the wife’s Range Rover get the Eff outta here you greedy pathetic garden tool girl bye
Bonnie is a big joke I feel for the wife so much. The hurt in her eyes hurts my heart so much
No sympathy for the mistress at all! She loved his money and misses his money that is all! The wife should serve time for what she did but the mistress is the evil witch and deserves to be alone forever! She just oozes evil!
if she understood women as a woman then she never wldve been messing with someone else's husband in the first damn place 🤷🏾♀️
Girl you were never going to have a future with him he would leave you for someone else eventually
Of course ppl are gonna attack the mistress which is understandable to a point but at the end of the day no one actually knew this mans motives as far as his happiness goes & he definitely didn't deserve to die
The mistress no shame at all.Don’t felt in love with someone husband. You’ll destroy someone family and you’ll burn in hell too.
I am so Sorry for Frances and her children, not for Bill. That lady loved his money, she did not love him. Frances has my sincere respect.
To be honest the wife should have ram the mistress over as well 🫣 Give the wife a metal of honor and leave her alone.
Also, strange how she could go to jail for life because of fraud, but not because her douche bag of a husband died.
Women, ask to see the divorce papers, before getting into a relationship, with a man who’s ‘separated’, or ‘divorced’.
I can’t stand Psycho Bonnie Contreras. What embarrassment to women. Karmic for sure will follow her.
In my opinion,The mistress is looking for a free meal ticket…
I can't stand how this girl said she will be driving and out if nowhere have a episode. She even sounded like she was lying. It sounded awkward. I would of told him to pull over and let me drive but he knew she lying so he didnt even flinch.
I really wanted to watch this one. But it says no stream, tap to retry, and I try, and goes dark.
