Missing Couple Found Dead

"CONVERSE, TX - A Converse couple unseen for two weeks was discovered dead in their home Saturday night. Police say it appears to be a murder/suicide as the man had been stabbed several times by the woman who then killed herself.

"Neighbors say something seemed wrong because the husband and wife had not been seen while their cars remained in the driveway, their lawn was not mowed, and the dogs in their backyard appeared to be hungry.

"A co-worker the man worked with at HEB finally decided to check and when it was obvious something was wrong, police were called.

"Officers say there was a strong odor coming from the home and the bodies appeared to have been dead at least two weeks.

"That co-worker says the man was a Costa Rica native and neither he nor his wife had any family in the area.

"However, he did say there was a history of violence with the couple as the man showed up to work one time with a stab wound to his arm. Co-workers tried to convince him to leave the woman who was troubled according to neighbors and HEB co-workers."
