Bodies Found In Cemetery


"JACKSON COUNTY, WV — The Jackson County Sheriff's Department is investigating what's believed to be a murder-suicide.

"Sheriff Mike Bright [said] the bodies of a husband and wife were found in a pickup truck around 3:30 Wednesday morning at the White Pine Cemetery on Stone Lick Road near Kenna.

"Investigators say it appears the husband shot the wife and then turned the gun on himself.

"According to the sheriff, the husband called relatives Tuesday night to say he was planning to shoot the two of them, but he wouldn't reveal a location. That's when the relative called 911.

"The family told emergency officials of several locations where the husband liked to go. A short time later a relative found the bodies at the cemetery.

"However, it's unclear if that's where the first shooting took place.

"The husband and wife were in their 40s. Their names have not been released.

"The sheriff says the couple did not have a history of domestic violence."
