Autopsy: Grandmother died of asphyxiation
6:50 p.m. EST November 12, 2014

DOUGLASVILLE, Ga -- A Douglasville grandmother died of asphyxiation after being bound and gagged, according to autopsy results.

"Most of us couldn't imagine doing this to an animal, much less a person," Douglasville Police Chief Chris Womack said Wednesday.

On Wednesday, Womack made a passionate plea, hoping to catch the person or people responsible for the death of 75-year old Florene Duke.

The woman was found by her grandaughter Monday night, with her hands and feet tied behind her back. She had something stuffed in her mouth and was face down on the bed.

Family members told 11Alive after she was found, that several items were missing from the apartment, including two TV's. They believe the motive was robbery.

Womack said one possibility in the case is that Duke was the victim of her own kindness toward others, and that a robber showed up to her apartment to take advantage of that.

DOUGLASVILLE, Ga. (AP) - More than one year after a hogtied Douglasville great-grandmother was found dead inside her apartment, a jury has returned guilty verdicts against a man charged in her death.

Multiple media outlets report that a jury on Monday found 54-year-old Odes Dupree guilty of two counts of felony murder, malice murder, kidnapping, robbery and burglary in the first degree in Douglas County Superior Court.

Dupree was convicted of tying up 75-year-old Florene Duke before stealing her television sets in November 2014.

Douglasville Police Chief Chris Womack said Duke's face had been covered, causing her to asphyxiate and die on the floor of her bedroom.

Prosecutors said Dupree stole Duke's property in order to sell them for money to buy cocaine.

Sentencing for Dupree is scheduled for Monday.
