BROWN COUNTY, Minn. (WTHR) — A man was accused of giving his sick wife methamphetamine before she died.
The Mankato Free Press reported that Duane Arden Johnson told authorities he was throwing her a "death party."
Johnson called 911 to tell authorities his wife had died.
Once on scene, officers found the words “Death Parde God Hell” spray-painted on the front door. A naked Duane Johnson allegedly ran outside and said his wife was dead, then ran back inside to take a bath. He was later found in the bathtub hallucinating and trying to wash white and black “things” from his skin.
Debra Johnson's body was found wrapped in a sheet at the top of the stairs.
Duane said the couple took meth and spent their final hours having sex and listening to metal band Quiet Riot.
After her death, Duane wrapped Debra in linen “like the Bible told me to do."
He said he waited several hours before calling 911 to make sure she was dead, according to the Mankato Free Press.
Duane was arrested and charged with criminal neglect and felony counts of theft and receiving stolen property. His bond was set to $250,000 or $150,000 with conditions.
