A man has been charged with the murder of his wife after 'suspicious' text messages were sent from her phone saying she had coronavirus.
Gretchen Anthony went missing from her home last month - weeks after filing for divorce from her husband David, 43. Now he been accused of using Covid-19 as a cover story to hide his estranged wife's disappearance.
When 51-year-old Gretchen vanished, her relatives informed police they'd received worrying messages from her phone. They claimed she had a "serious case of coronavirus" and was getting urgent medical care.
One text claimed Gretchen was being "held" at a local clinic in Florida, while another stated that she'd been transferred to hospital and had been placed on a ventilator.
