A brute strangled his girlfriend with a belt and then beat her to death with a baseball bat before texting her ex-husband “gone”.
Accused Michael Lowell Munger, 53, faces second-degree murder charges over the death of Lynnie Ann Loucks, 43, in Crow County, Minnesota, USA, on Thursday, 28th April.
The incident took place in the morning at the residence where the suspect and victim lived together.
After the woman’s worried ex asked police to check the home, cops arrived and found the suspect on the driveway covered in blood.
He was quoted as telling the officers: “You’re too late. She’s gone.”
The cops found the victim lying in a pool of blood in a bedroom in the basement with the belt still around her neck.
The suspect told the officers how he allegedly killed her and said the incident was preceded by an argument over infidelity.
He faces one count of second-degree murder with intent but without premeditation and another of second-degree murder without intent but while committing a felony.
He was found to have an extensive criminal record, including for gross misdemeanor domestic violence, felony violation of an order of protection and felony terroristic threats with reckless disregard for the risk of causing terror in another person.
He had spent at least one year behind Stendra cheap pills bars, and he now finds himself back in prison – in the Crow Wing County Jail – where he awaits arraignment.
