Wife admits to killing husband after he purchased porn

WHITE HALL, Ark. (KATV) -
Patricia Hill is the first to admit it: she killed her husband after he purchased porn. Now, Hill, 69, has been arrested and charged with capital murder after her husband, 65-year-old Frank Hill, was found dead.

The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office received a 911 call around 3 p.m. Saturday from Patricia Hill herself. She told police she had shot her husband. Deputies responded to 3801 Donaldson Lane in White Hall. They found Patricia Hill standing in the front yard. She was immediately detained, according to the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office.

The body of Frank Hill was found on the floor inside a utility shed at their home. Police said he suffered at least two gunshot wounds.

During an interview with authorities, Patricia Hill said she had arrived home and walked to the utility shed to confront her husband. She said she disagreed with his purchase of video pornography, so she canceled the order. Frank Hill managed to place another order.

Patricia Hill told investigators that she had asked her husband to leave the shed, but he refused. She then went inside their home, grabbed her .22-caliber pistol, went back to the shed and shot her husband twice -- hitting him in the head and leg, according to police. Then she returned to her home and called 911 to report the shooting.

Patricia Hill is currently being held at the W.C. "Dub" Brassell Adult Detention Center without bond.

A Jefferson County jury just might decide the old bastard needed killing.
