Dennis Wayne Price II of Kingsland was released on a $1 million bond on April 26.

Price was arrested by the Llano County Sheriff’s Office on Oct. 3 on charges of assault-family violence-impeding breath or circulation. The charges were upgraded to first-degree murder when his wife was taken off of life support and died on Oct. 6. Price is the person who called police. 

A grand jury indicted Price on Dec. 14. His case is being heard by 424th District Court Judge Evan Stubbs.

The charge of first-degree murder carries up to $10,000 in fines, five years to life in prison, and potentially the death penalty.
