Crazed woman murders boyfriend with sword on Christmas Eve

AP: Brittany A. Wilson has been charged with killing her boyfriend with a sword on Friday, Dec. 24, 2021. Wilson, 32 smiled broadly in her mugshot after confessing to the murder and being arrested in Cape Girardeau, MO located near St. Louis. Police said Wilson, 32 was found outside the home she shared with her boyfriend Friday night with blood on her clothing, and a sword was lying in the front yard.

She turned herself in. KFVS television reported that a woman had called police shortly after 11 p.m. Friday to report that she had killed her boyfriend with a sword.

After officers arrested Wilson, they went inside the home and found her boyfriend, 34-year-old Harrison Stephen Foster, dead with several fresh stab wounds.

Wilson told police that she and Foster had taken methamphetamine earlier in the day. She also told investigators that she believed Foster had several other entities living in his body, and she was setting him free by stabbing him.

Wilson was being held Sunday in lieu of $2 million bond. She has been charged with first-degree murder and armed criminal action. It was not immediately known if Wilson had an attorney to speak on her behalf.
