Waller County police responded to the property and discovered a horrific scene. A few days after the discovery, Sheriff Troy Guidry described finding Diaz *****, decapitated and dismembered. She appeared to have been stabbed multiple times with a kitchen ******.

“A portion of the body was dismembered, and the residence was covered in blood. Gruesome scene at best,” Guidry said in a press conference following the *******.

Dicus was detained at the scene, according to a release. When detectives arrived, Discus admitted he ******* his wife.

Officers arrested Dicus on a ******* charge and booked him into the local jail.

Dicus’ motive for murdering wife ******** undisclosed

A motive in the ******** was not released by police, but prosecutors said during the pre-trial phase of the case, “potential mental health issues were raised regarding the Defendant’s competency to stand trial.”

But after a court-ordered examination for competency Discus was deemed competent.

Two months before Dicus murdered his wife, he was arrested on a DWI charge. Court records show Dicus threatened a police officer and staff at the local jail. After punching windows, he was placed in a restraint chair.

Local deputies had also responded to the same property more than once for reports of domestic *********, Sheriff Guidry said during a press conference last January.

Dicus’ bond was initially set for $500,000, but District Attorney Sean G. Whittmore argued for a $1M bond shortly after the *******. The DA cited Dicus’ violent history and the seriousness of his latest ******, and a Waller County judge agreed and

Dicus not eligible for parole until 2043

Due to the aggravated nature of the offense, prosecutors said Dicus is not eligible for parole until 2043 at the earliest.

“Waller County does not tolerate domestic *********,” Waller County ********* District Attorney Sean Whittmore said in a statement. “Heinous ******* like this one will not go unanswered, we will seek justice for the victims of domestic ********* and send a message to the perpetrators that here, we ****** for our victims.”
