Texas man confesses to decapitating newlywed 'undocumented' wife: report  https://news.yahoo.com/texas-man-confesses-decapitating-newlywed-160637630.html

A Texas man was ordered held on $500,000 bail for allegedly murdering and decapitating his newlywed bride inside the home they shared on his family’s property, according to reports.

Just minutes after the gruesome killing, surveillance video seemingly captured 21-year-old Jared James Dicus stealing a beer from a convenience store. Video shows him walking past the counter without paying, before cracking open the cold one outside in the parking lot, FOX 26 Houston reported.

Dicus had just married 21-year-old Anggy Diaz in October. Waller County Sheriff Troy Guidry described the victim as an "undocumented" woman who worked as counter help at a local business. Diaz’ family said she was originally from Nicaragua and had initially been in the care of an aunt, Adis Diaz, when she first arrived in the United States.

In a phone interview, Rumley said Hudson accepted the punishment.  http://archive.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2011/03/04/medford_officer_suspended_in_wake_of_prostitution_sting/

“He assented to it,’’ Rumley said. “There will be no appeal.’’

Hudson, 55, admitted to sufficient facts in Lynn District Court Aug. 27, and his case was continued without a finding, according to court records.

He has been on paid administrative leave following the charges, Rumley said, but now he will no longer receive a paycheck. Hudson could not be reached for comment.

The plea deal, which indicates neither an admission of guilt nor of innocence, requires Hudson to stay out of trouble for six months before he would be free of criminal liability.
