Authorities in Trenton, S.C., now believe Joseph Anthony McKinnon, 60, strangled Patricia Ruth Dent, 65, and died of a heart attack while he was burying her at their home on Saturday.
Investigators suspected foul play in the death of Patricia Ruth Dent, and their suspicions were confirmed Monday after an autopsy found McKinnon, 60, died of a heart attack while Dent, 65, died of strangulation. Authorities now believe McKinnon strangled Dent and died while he was burying her at their home in Trenton, S.C.
“There’s no doubt what happened now,” Rowland said. “We have ideas of what their argument might have been about, but this case is closed.” So when authorities turned their attention to the pit in the garden area, they began to dig in hope of finding any clues. A neighbor had told police that they thought it was odd how McKinnon was trying to cover up the hole as fast as he could on Saturday morning without putting the water trough in it.When they discovered black garbage bags buried in the hole, police opened the bags to find a body bound in duct tape. It was Dent.
Briggs, Dent’s twin, told local media that she was “shocked,” adding that she saw no signs of any potential danger. She described her sister to WRDW as someone “full of energy” who was liked by anyone who met her.
