## Resource

A retired Maryland state trooper, 92-year-old John Biggs Jr., faces first-degree murder charges after allegedly stabbing his 89-year-old wife, Jane Biggs, multiple times in their Goodyear home. His son, alerted by concerning messages, found her dead in the bedroom and said John admitted to the attack, claiming rage over financial theft and later taking pills hoping to die. A bloody kitchen knife was found at the scene. While prosecutors worry about his danger to himself and others, his attorney argues for a lower bond, citing his clean record and decades of public service. The judge has ordered him held on a $1 million secured bond as the investigation continues. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
