Man faces life sentence in slaying of Royal Oak woman, 80

Pontiac — A jury on Thursday found a parole absconder guilty of first-degree premeditated murder in the killing of an elderly Royal Oak woman.

Alan C. Wood, 49, was charged in the Nov. 20, 2011, slaying of 80-year old Nancy Dailey. He also was convicted of felony murder, larceny in a building and two counts related to using Dailey's stolen ATM and credit cards.

Wood faces a maximum sentence of life in prison without parole. He will be sentenced Feb. 15.

His lover and accused accomplice, Tonia Watson, will serve at least 23 years in prison under a plea deal in which she agreed to testify against Wood. She will be sentenced Feb. 5.
