Angela Berry, 38, was arrested in June 2015 after 53-year-old William David Corteville suffered severe injuries from being set on fire while he slept, investigators said. Five months later, Corteville died at Augusta Burn Center. According to deputies, his skin 'appeared to have melted off his body.' Berry was accused of dousing the victim in gasoline and igniting the fuel. After Corteville's death, her charges were upgraded to murder and first-degree arson. The judge accepted her guilty plea of voluntary manslaughter.
