An Indiana man is behind bars facing murder charges after he admitted to stabbing his girlfriend to death when a dispute over how he cut onions turned “very aggressive”.
60-year-old Charles Michael Calvert called 911 at about 8:30 p.m. Saturday to say that he stabbed Marsha Linsky after she had “come at him with a knife” and become “very verbal.”
During questioning, Calvert claimed Linsky was angry that he didn’t cut the onions correctly and shoved a slow cooker towards him before attacking him with a knife.
Calvert said he “became very defensive” when he stabbed Linsky who was found with a gash on her head and neck, not breathing.
The man also admitted that he initially tried to stage the crime scene. Investigators at the scene couldn’t find any chopped onions but only a peel.
They also found evidence that Calvert showered himself and called his father before calling 911.
