On a fateful Monday afternoon in December 2021, the quiet suburb of Spring, Texas, was rocked by a heinous crime that would forever change the lives of those involved. Carey Birmingham, a 60-year-old man, brutally shot and killed his wife, Patricia “Rici” Birmingham, in their driveway, as she captured the horrifying moments on video.

The Shocking Crime Caught on Camera

Neighbors heard the couple arguing outside their home on the 19800 block of Rose Dawn Lane. Armed with a shotgun, Carey Birmingham confronted his wife about her alleged infidelity. In the chilling video footage, his haunting words echo: “Alright, goodbye. You’re going to meet Jesus.”When Patricia alerted him that he was being filmed, Carey coldly replied, “I’ll pull it. I’m mad enough to pull it.” He then fired three shots at his wife, brutally ending her life. Shockingly, Carey walked back into the house, leaving his dying wife on the ground without any attempt to help her.
