An Austin woman has been arrested on second degree felony charges of burglary of a habitation. Cassandra Hom apparently forced her way into a neighbor’s house to get a necklace she had previously given to the neighbor.

When the neighbor said she no longer had the necklace, Hom stole an urn containing the remains of the woman’s husband. Police later found the urn smashed in a nearby ditch. Hom is now being held on $20,000 bail and police have found an outstanding warrant for her arrest in Oregon.
