A Williamsburg resident, 48-year-old Wilma Cheek, was found by the cemetery caretaker, dead slumped over in the driver's seat of her gray 1989 Pontiac that was parked in the cemetery.
An autopsy confirmed Cheek had been shot to death inside her vehicle sometime between 10 a.m. and 11:15 a.m. that morning.
Wilma was last seen at her home by family members earlier that morning.
