Man Died Of Heart Attack While He Was Burying A Woman He Strangled To Death

A man died of a heart attack while he was burying the body of a woman he had strangled in his backyard, South Carolina officials announced.

“Evidence gathered at the scene, along with statements from witnesses aided investigators to build a timeline, leading us to believe that Mr. McKinnon attacked Ms. Dent while inside their home,” the county sheriff and coroner’s statement said.

“Mr. McKinnon then bound her and wrapped her in trash bags before putting her in the previously dug pit. The pit was then partially filled in by Mr. McKinnon. While covering the pit, Mr. McKinnon had the cardiac event, causing his death.”

Crime is alive and well in the United States. As a nation, we have relatively high crime rates; however, they have decreased significantly over the past 25 years.

The crime rate in the U.S. is about 47.70 per 100,000 people. The American government categorizes crime in two ways. A criminal act is either a violent crime or a property crime.

The four criminal behaviors that fall into the category of violent crime include: aggravated assault, robbery, homicide, whether intentional or accidental, and rape.
