Michigan inmate’s deal to reveal remains included Xbox
FULTON, Mich. (AP) — A man serving a life sentence in the death of his estranged wife led authorities to where he buried her body in Michigan eight years ago in exchange for an Xbox, according to authorities.
Doug Stewart, 29, will also be allowed to participate in some prison programs, the Sturgis Journal reported .
On Monday, he took detectives to a wooded area in Kalamazoo County where he had buried Venus Stewart, 32. He’d left two stumps at the site as a landmark.
Doug Stewart was living in Virginia when his estranged wife disappeared in April 2010 from her parents’ home in Michigan. Doug Stewart was convicted of first-degree murder in 2011.
Authorities have been visiting with Stewart annually since his sentencing to try and get information about the body’s location.
Tests are being conducted on the remains, but authorities say they are confident they have found Venus Stewart.
