WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. Authorities say a North Carolina stabbed his estranged wife to death before hanging himself.
The Winston-Salem Journal reported Saturday that 32-year-old Cory Gaither went to his wife's home around 5:30 a.m. Friday. A trail of blood led from Allison Gaither's driveway to behind a neighbor's house, where she collapsed and died.
Police say Cory Gaither drove south toward Davidson County, where his body was found hanging from a tree limb two hours later. Sheriff David Grice says Gaither tied an electrical cord around his neck, climbed the tree and jumped from a branch.
Allison Gaither had taken out a domestic violence protective order against her husband two days before her death. She told police he threatened to take her children and assaulted her male friend.
