"She was the light to our family"

A man in Texas has been charged with murdering his wife and confessed to decapitating her, according to Waller County Sheriff Troy Guidry.

The Waller County Sheriff’s Office said they received a call about a possible death on Wednesday shortly after 4:30 p.m.

Authorities said deputies arrived and discovered a woman's body in a small residential structure behind the main home. She had been decapitated, the sheriff said.

A man at the scene, identified as Jared James Dicus, the husband of Anggy Diaz, 21, was detained. The husband was interviewed and gave a full confession, admitting to the murder of his wife, according to the sheriff.

Guidry said it appears a kitchen knife was used to decapitate Diaz.

That’s the world we live in today. It’s a gruesome scene," Guidry said. "Both sides of these families will be altered by it."

Family members of Diaz set up a GoFundMe account to help with funeral expenses.

"Our family is shattered by the loss of such a young life," according to the GoFundMe. "She was the light to our family and community. Always with a smile, and cheerful personality. The absence of her from our lives will be felt forever."
