Barring any last-minute stays, Robert “Bob” Fratta is scheduled for execution Tuesday in Huntsville.
Fratta’s execution date comes nearly 29 years after his estranged wife, Farah Fratta, was murdered.
“Detective 101, investigator 101, you’re going to look at the husband,” said Houston Crimestoppers’ Andy Kahan. “Did you arrange to have your wife killed?” a detective asked Bob during an interrogation the night of Farah’s murder.A portion of the videotaped interrogation remains in the Harris County court archives. Bob appeared calm and said he had no idea who would want to kill his wife.
“He is so self-serving, so egotistical, a classic narcissist that believes the world revolves around him,” said Kahan. “He just couldn’t fathom that he would not be granted custody and he did not want to pay child support.” “I can remember walking around the office and saying to anyone who would listen, ‘the bad guys put bullets in my mommy’s head,’ Cox said.“They wanted to know when they could live with him. Amber cried when he left and wanted just one more hug,” Cox read from her case notes.“He wanted to know, ‘Daddy, why did you have all that money in your car?’” Cox said.
Guidry was later arrested for bank robbery and detectives learned the gun used during that robbery is believed to be the same used to kill Farah. Detectives also determined the gun had been purchased by Bob.
