Whoa wait a minute. The title says he killed her after 70 years of marriage and she is 80. So she was 10 years old when they married.

Sam DaWeirdo :
James E. Pate never faced trial for the murder of his wife, Cheryl Pate, because he died in custody on October 6, 2025.
While being held on first-degree murder charges at the Tazewell County Jail in Illinois, the 93-year-old’s physical health began to rapidly decline. He was transferred to a local hospital and placed into hospice care shortly before passing away.
His death sparked a major public health investigation after medical staff discovered he had contracted Legionnaires' disease. Following an investigation by the Illinois Department of Public Health, the jail's internal water system tested positive for Legionella bacteria. Because of his death and the contamination, local officials immediately implemented emergency safety measures and temporarily released several non-violent inmates to reduce the facility's population and limit exposure.
Due to James Pate's passing, all criminal proceedings against him regarding the September 2, 2025, incident were officially closed.
supposedly, Legionaires disease can significantly affect your brain, so it's possible that's why he attacked his wife, especially since the neighbor stated he never showed signs of violence.
