Tara Grant told her husband that she would call the police, and he would go to jail for striking her, according to the account.

Stephen Grant told police that he then began to choke his wife.

Grant told police that after his wife stopped moving, he placed a belt around her neck and tightened it. He said he put her in the back of the SUV and covered her with plastic.

On Feb. 11, he said, he drove the vehicle to the nearby tool-and-die-shop where he worked. He told police that he broke band saw blades into large pieces, wrapped a rag around one end, then used them to cut the body into pieces.

Grant said he placed his wife's head, torso and other body parts into plastic bags and loaded them into a larger container. He then drove to his home with the body parts stored in the rear cargo area of the SUV.

Early the next day, Feb. 12, Grant said he put a red sled in the vehicle and left his home to discard the body parts. He placed the plastic container on the sled, but he said he panicked and went home when the sled struck a tree and the contents spilled out.

He said he returned a few hours later to bury the body parts and sled. He also threw saws, gloves and other items into the woods. On Feb. 13 he went back to hide unwrapped body parts and a plastic bag containing latex gloves he had worn.

The guy has an SUV, thus, must be immoral.
