One Jessica Kilde, of Ogema, Minnesota, has gruesomely murdered her 41 year old boyfriend, Richard Baity.

The 33 year old killed him by tying him to a truck and dragging him along a rural road.

Surprisingly, she pleaded guilty at the Becker County District Court, to second-degree intentional murder.

According to prosecutors, sheriff’s deputies found the body of Baity on the road about 50 yards from his driveway, which is located on E. 370th Street in Maple Grove Township. Police discovered a piece of rope around his neck.

The rope around his neck and the piece of rope on Kilde’s van matched.

They also found skid marks on the road, leading back to Baity’s home. Kilde told police that she and Baity had a disagreement at home that night, but it was nothing serious.

According to police, the two had been drinking alcohol and were smoking methamphetamine in the home earlier in the day. Kilde remains in jail pending her sentencing.

Her criminal history includes convictions for drunk driving, domestic assault and disorderly conduct.
