RIO RANCHO, N.M. (KRQE) - A grand jury indicted a Rio Rancho man for the death of his wife.

Leo Noonan, 53, was indicted on charges of second-degree murder and tampering with evidence.

Police arrested him just 20 days after the remains of his wife Angela Noonan were found on a ranch outside of Rio Rancho.

Investigators said he confessed to his ex-wife that he killed Angela with a hammer and kept her body in his house for more than a month before dumping the remains.
