Look at this hot mess.
Sarah J Hartsfield, a Texas woman who had been investigated over the death of an ex-husband in 2018 by Minnesota authorities is facing a murder charge in connection with her current husband's "suspicious death”.
However, she has never been charged in that case.
The sheriff's office said that Joseph Hartsfield died of foul play following a 911 call made by Sarah on January 7 regarding a medical emergency.
Medics rushed to the couple’s home in a gated community in Beach City, Texas, and began administering aid before transporting him to the hospital. the sheriff's office received a call from the hospital later that same day, about Joe's suspicious illness.
Authorities arrived at the hospital and launched an investigation.
"The story that the wife gave the hospital, the deputies, the detectives do not match up to the forensic evidence," Chambers County Sheriff Brian Hawthorne told local media.
Joe remained in a coma for a week before his death.
Videos shared from Joe's Facebook page to a group on the social media show his wife, Sarah, hunched over his body, crying as he was wheeled away in the hospital bed to have his organs harvested.
"I think all of that adds up to some of the theatrics we are dealing with in this case," Sheriff Hawthorne said.
Nearly a month after his death, Sarah Jean Hartsfield (48) was charged with his murder.
It has since emerged that in 2018, Sarah was investigated by the Douglas County Sheriff's Office in Minnesota after her previous husband was shot and killed.
She was never charged but Sheriff Hawthorne is aware of that case and has been in contact with the agency.
"Their case was investigated," Sheriff Hawthorne said. "I'll definitely support the findings, and it was a grand jury that made the decision up there. Now that's not to say new information may come to light where they may re-open the case, but obviously, that would be up to the Douglas County Sheriff."
The shooting death of David Wayne Bragg (43) remains under investigation, according to an updated Facebook post from the Douglas County Sheriff's Office, which added that it remains an "isolated incident."
There don't seem to be any obvious similarities other than they had the same wife. Is that enough? No, but it's definitely weird. Let's keep an eye on this one.
