A Texas man has allegedly confessed to slaughtering his wife inside their Forth Worth home over the weekend telling the 911 dispatcher “My father-in-law is going to kill me.”
It was Christopher Paul Robertson’s brother who first alerted police after he returned home from a days-long trip to find out about the murder.
“When he returned today, he observed Christopher extremely intoxicated inside the house,” police said.
“He then saw Christopher walk into his bedroom at which time [the brother] smelled a strong foul odor.”
The brother also saw Christopher tripping over something wrapped in a tarp before realizing it was his sister-in-law Kristlynne.
Officers obtained a search warrant for the home Saturday morning; at 12:41 p.m., Christopher allegedly called 911 and confessed to the crime.
“Christopher Robertson also handed us a gun that he had on his person and stated that it was the gun that he used to shoot his wife,” police said.
