A judge in Texas sentenced a man to 40 years in prison for murdering his wife just months into their marriage.

Jared Dicus, 23, confessed to killing his wife, Anggy Diaz, 21, on Jan. 11, 2023, the same day that her mutilated body was discovered near the couple's residence, according to the Waller County Sheriff's Office (WCSO).

The newlyweds were living in a home on the property of Dicus' parents, who alerted police after coming across their daughter-in-law's body, according to the WCSO.

Sheriff Troy Guidry described the scene at a press conference a few days later, saying: "A portion of the body was dismembered, and the residence was covered in blood. Gruesome scene at best."

The parents who named her Anggy? They shouldn't be allowed to decide anything.

They're from Nicuragua, not every country has to fit in with USA naming conventions.

No, they don’t, but this is such a terrible situation people need a little levity. Besides, her heritage isn’t mentioned in the article posted.
