TheTrial of Stephen Grant

[Pinkwitch]

Please forgive me if there is already a thread on this. I couldn't seem to find one.

The trial is starting and they are trying to pick jurors. This happened near where I live so I m very interested in this case.

Anyone else interested?

Stephen Grant killed his wife, Tara, 10 months ago here in Michigan. They were having an arguement, and he strangled her to death. Afterward, he took her body to his father's tool and die shop, cut her in pieces, then proceeded to Stoney Creek which is a park in the area and placed her head and limbs in a hole at the base of a tree. He put her torso in a plastic container and kept it in his garage which is how they caught him. While the police were searching his home, they found it.

The jury came back with a verdict on this yesterday. 2nd degree murder.
