TRENTON, S.C. (WRDW/WAGT) - In a bizarre twist that some might call karma, a Trenton man died of a heart attack after burying the body of his girlfriend after he strangled her, Edgefield County authorities say.
The Edgefield County Sheriff’s Office says evidence shows Joseph McKinnon, 60, strangled Patricia Dent, 65, inside the home and was burying her in the backyard when he died of a heart attack.
Something that looks so easy in all the TV movies: digging a hole. The cowboy is handed a shovel and ordered to dig his own grave. [Slow fade - next scene, he's in a six foot deep hole] I learned in the Army it's just not that easy. I almost had a heart attack myself several times. (Well, at least it felt that way.)

ReplyDeleteYou'd think, huh?
DeleteIf his goal was to bury her to avoid arrest and prosecution than it worked.
