GAINESVILLE, Ga. — A Georgia woman has been arrested for allegedly killing her elderly fiancé and living with his body.
The Associated Press says Tabitha Zeldia Wood, 45, was arrested on Thursday for allegedly killing her fiance, Leroy Frankin Kramer Jr., 82, and living with his body for two months.
The Hall County Sheriff’s Office deputies told the AP that Kramer’s stepdaughter on Tuesday told them she hadn’t heard from him for a few months and was concerned about his safety.
Deputies arrived at his home and found his body, according to the AP. Wood allegedly told them that he had died at the beginning of April and she had been living with his body since.
