In Anderson, South Carolina, Gwen G. Rice, 78, is accused of killing her husband with a hammer and a garden cultivator. She allegedly attacked Paul Norman Rice while he was playing solitaire on the computer.

Her husband made it to a neighbor’s home died of a heart attack due to the trauma of attack. Gwen Rice then tried to take her own life.

  1. The old “Hammer-Cultivator” trick, ay?

    Or was that the “Hammer-GardenWeasel” thing?

  2. Looks like a smaller version of the Throw Mama From the Train lady.

  3. I’ve heard of death coming with a scythe but an electric garden cultivator! How very modern.
