Frisco Police Arrest Third Suspect in 2002 Weiss Homicide
A renewed probe used fresh witness interviews plus forensic review to produce three arrests and keep the investigation active.
Overview
- Frisco and Waxahachie police arrested 50-year-old Jason Honrud on a murder warrant tied to the 2002 death of Plano resident Frank Weiss on Wednesday.
- Honrud is the third person taken into custody in 2026 after Lisa Honrud was arrested in April and Keith Hart was arrested in May.
- The Tarrant County Medical Examiner found Weiss had been shot twice with a .38-caliber firearm and investigators say his body was wrapped in black bags, tied with rope and weighed down with 50-pound sandbags.
- A six-detective cold-case team reopened the file earlier this year and said modern investigative techniques plus new witness interviews produced the leads that led to the recent arrests.
- Investigators say Weiss was killed within days of his estranged spouse moving out and signing an annulment, detectives dispute an earlier claim that Weiss traveled to Cancun, and prosecutors have not yet announced formal charging plans.
