A man died in Alabama from a heart attack while attempting to discard the body of his girlfriend, whom he allegedly strangled, according to local authorities. The incident involved Daniel Robbins, 44, and Jessica Folds, 47, whose bodies were discovered on June 10 near an abandoned vehicle in Lanett, Alabama. The Chambers County sheriff's office stated that both bodies were found together, and autopsy results confirmed that Folds had been strangled.
Investigation Details
Investigators reported that Robbins, originally from Georgia, and Folds had been in a relationship prior to her death. District Attorney Mike Segrest indicated that Robbins was likely trying to hide Folds' body when he suffered a heart attack. The truck near the scene was still running, with the driver’s side door open and drag marks leading into the woods, suggesting a hurried attempt to dispose of the body. Segrest noted that the events likely unfolded the previous night.
Background on Victims
Folds was the mother of three adult sons, and local news outlets described her as having a significant impact on her community. The investigation is being conducted by local and state law enforcement agencies, focusing on the circumstances surrounding her death and Robbins' actions.
