Update to the information someone provided above:

Dr. William A. Manson Jr. plead guilty to premeditated murder just shy of one year after he killed Elinor Manson. He was sentenced to twenty five years to life.

The newspaper accounts at the time of the murder were inaccurate. There was no argument that escalated. He had been divorced for over twenty years.

On April 1st of 2009, Dr. Manson went over to his ex wife's place of residence with the intention of killing her and then committing suicide. He lurked outside until he knew she was alone and vulnerable. He brought flowers so she would let him in. When she went to put the flowers in water, he attempted to suffocate her with a plastic bag he had brought for the purpose. She fought back, so he used a frying pan to subdue her. Then he finished suffocating her with another plastic bag.

He pulled his car into the driveway and began calling people to tell them what he had done. When his daughter came home, he told her he had killed her mother.

The screaming neighbors heard was the daughter when she returned home and found her mother.
