Sometimes the loveliest things happen in this world.
60-year-old Joseph McKinnon recently strangled his wife to death, so that part’s a bit of a bummer. The good news is that while Joseph was digging a grave in his backyard to bury his former beloved, he suffered a heart attack and dropped dead himself!
The Details:
Deputies with the Edgefield County Sheriff’s Office responded to a home in Trenton on Saturday to investigate reports of “an unresponsive male lying in his yard.”
When they arrived on the scene, they discovered Mr. McKinnon on the ground near a freshly dug pit.
Soon after, deputies uncovered a second body, partially buried and not far from where McKinnon dropped dead. The remains were identified as 65-year-old Patricia Dent, who also lived at the home.
Dent was the victim of foul play carried out by her husband. McKinnon was taken out by God.
Karma is real.
