We learned that he had mood swings, which she learned quite well over the years. He was entering another abusive stage. She couldn’t take any more so she got a shotgun and while he was asleep she killed him. Dentist Allen Azevedo, the husband of the victim, immediately became a suspect as police probed into the homicide case. Although, they learned that the dentist had an airtight alibi.

They are cases from the heartland that I as Sheriff participated in the investigation or cases that I have researched as a writer. It is my hope that in reading these murder cases people will become more aware of our vulnerability as citizens. Rural America isn’t immune to murder.

I wouldn’t put anything past my father, Alberic stated.When Chris Combs arrives “looking like their grandfather” to help Amy plant a vegetable garden, she tells cameras how the family patriarch was murdered by his son. Spiller’s 2003 book has a chapter titled “The Antifreeze Murder (Shawneetown, IL),” which details how Charles H. Ellis murdered his father in 1986. The newspaper clipping continues: “…Ellis became ill at his home the morning of Nov. 6 after drinking some iced tea. Authorities said it was thought at first that Ellis had suffered a stroke. He was taken to Pearce Hospital in Eldorado.” This information was enough to implicate Jim Williams, Sr., as a suspect on Sharon’s death and also gave the sheriff probable cause to get a search warrant for the cesspool behind the home belonging to Williams. The sheriff was right. The body of the missing spouse was found in a cesspool wearing clothing that fit the description given on the day he was reported missing. The evidence was enough to arrest Jim William, Sr., for the double murder of his wife and his girlfriend’s husband. He would be convicted of both murders a year later. According to the Logansport Pharos-Tribune, a Logansport, Indiana newspaper, Shawneetown resident Ellis was arrested and charged with three counts of murder in December 1986. He was “suspected of spiking his father’s iced tea with antifreeze.” Ellis was living with 61-year-old Charles T. Ellis at the time.
