The Alabama Court of Criminal Appeals has upheld the
conviction of a Gadsden man found guilty of capital murder in the death of his
wife.
Roy Thomas “Tommy” Smith was sentenced to life in prison
without parole in the death of Carla Partin Smith.
The appeals court confirmed the conviction Friday in an
unpublished memorandum opinion, according to Etowah County Deputy District
Attorney Marcus Reid.
Carla Smith was found dead Nov. 1, 2010, in the trunk of her
blue Jaguar in a gravel lot on Pump Station Road/Brooke Avenue. She had been
strangled. Her husband was indicted June 21, 2011, by a grand jury. He was
convicted March 18 and sentenced to life without parole in April.
