The headless body of a woman was found in Texas on Thursday, shocking the community where she lived and the entire United States. The woman's husband has been charged with her murder. They were married only four months ago.
The 21-year-old's body was discovered in her home, but according to Sheriff Troy Guidry, the head was missing. "It was a terrible scene," Guidry said Thursday.
After police questioned the woman's husband, 21-year-old Jared Dicus, he admitted to being the author of the gruesome murder. Dicus and wife Anggy Diaz were married on October 21.
The severed head and a knife believed to be the crime weapon were later found in the backyard.
The murder is believed to have been committed on Wednesday evening around 11:00 p.m. Dicus's parents, who lived nearby, called the house but no one answered, so they called the police.
The young woman was a citizen of Nicaragua and was believed to have no US documents.
