Royce Teets Police Interrogation Murdered Fiancé Point-Blank Range with AK-47

Teets was arrested on July 11, 2016 on a premeditated murder charge in the shooting death of his fiancee, Terri Lynn Coolidge.

Teets shot her at point blank range with an AK-47 after the two had an argument about his infidelity.

According to a police report, Teets claimed his fiancée was an alcoholic who had gotten mad at him earlier in the day for texting to and speaking with other women.

Police said Teets left to go drinking with friends and returned home to an irate Coolidge. He claimed that Coolidge broke a mirror in their bedroom and told him, "I'm going to kill you."

"She was extremely drunk," Teets said in the interrogation video.

According to the report, Teets went to the bedroom closet where he keeps two AK-47s and grabbed one of them before Coolidge could take it. Teets said he removed the magazine from the gun and believed that it was empty. He said the argument moved from the bedroom to the living room, where Coolidge was shot.

Police said Teets, who is a convicted felon, gave three different versions of how his fiancée ended up dead.

"Who got the gun out of the closet?" a detective who was questioning Teets asked.

"When she was running to get it, I ran back there and got it first," Teets said.

Teets said the first thing he did after finding the gun was to remove the magazine and throw it on the bed. However, when police found the gun, they found a live round in the chamber.

Teets shows a range of emotion in the video, at one point slamming his hand on the table and at another time getting on his knees to pray.

"Why did you have to die?" Teets said.

Teets eventually confessed to the shooting, admitting that he lied to police.

"How many times have you lied to me today?" the detective asked Teets.

"I was scared," Teets answered.

"How many times have you lied to me today?" the detective said. "Just tell me. 10? 20?"

"A few," Teets said.

Teets is charged with first-degree murder.
