PHOENIX – Police have identified a man who walked into a Phoenix police station and allegedly claimed to have killed his wife before officers found the dead woman inside his car.
Phoenix Police Sgt. Tommy Thompson said Delores Glover was driving Dwight Wesley to work when they got into an argument around 11:30 p.m. Wednesday.
Thompson said while in the car, the 46-year-old woman told her husband she was divorcing him. Wesley reportedly became upset and stabbed Glover multiple times, killing her.
Wesley, 58, then drove to police headquarters where he walked in and confessed, handing over the knife.
According to court documents, Wesley told police, "she kept pushing my buttons."
Officers took Wesley into custody, went outside and reportedly found Glover dead inside the car.
Thompson said the couple was in the middle of a divorce. Court documents show Glover had an order of protection against Wesley.
In the order of protection, Glover said Wesley punched her in the chest after he got upset because he thought someone used his toothbrush. Glover claimed Wesley had been drinking, and also wrote she didn't want anything to happen to her when Wesley was under the influence.
Wesley was arrested and charged with second degree murder. He is being held on a $750,000 bond.
