Last week, a finalist in a cooking show on the Food Network was found dead in a wood stove. Her and her husband were reportedly killed and their bodies put into a wood stove leaving only remnants of the bodies. Police got a call regarding suspicious behavior at Robert Jason Owens’ house, a contractor who was working for the victims at the time. The call pertained to the discarding of items in a dumpster. The police obtained a warrant to search Owens’ house and there they found the remains of the TV star and her husband in the wood stove of his house. The finalist, Cristie Codd was five months pregnant at the time. Owens is being charged with two counts of first-degree murder, murder of an unborn child, and breaking and entering. Also, Owens’ apparently confessed to his wife that he had killed Joseph Codd, the husband to Cristie.
This is a very odd story to say the least. There was no motive that the police released at this time. Their only connection was that Owens’ was the Codd’s contractor and that he had done some “odd jobs” for the Codds in the past. It is an ongoing investigation so the police could not release much. I would like to follow this story to see if there was a motive or if Owens just went insane.
