TYLER, Texas — A Tyler man accused of killing his girlfriend by throwing gasoline on her and setting her house on fire will soon face trial in a Smith County courtroom.
A statutory hearing for Gregory Bargaineer, who is charged with murder for the death of Marilyn Janis McEachin, was held Friday. Bargaineer was arrested Nov. 18 after turning himself in for the death of Marilyn Janis McEachin, who was found in the back of her house on Shady Trail Drive that same morning. He was initially charged with murder and arson.
On Jan. 30, a grand jury handed down an indictment for capital murder by terror threat/other felony, meaning the alleged murder was committed while the suspect was committing another felony.
