Wife nails husband for murder beyond the grave as he’s arrested at her funeral

A wife nailed her husband for murder from beyond the grave, with police arresting the bloke right there at the funeral.

Adair Jose Lago was arrested at the graveside of his wife Franciele Gusso Rigoni, with the mystery murder seemingly solved with a key bit of CCTV footage.

Police made the arrest in the Brazilian state of Parana earlier this month after Lago, surrounded by grieving friends and family, was thrown into the back of a police van.

His arrest follows on from Franciele being found dead in the boot of her car with a head injury and stab wound to the stomach, with CCTV now revealing Lago's potential involvement.

Showing Franciele slumped against the passenger seat window, it is now presumed Lago had driven the corpse of his wife back home, where she was later discovered dead.

Lago had claimed to discover his wife at around 5pm on the day of the murder, May 31, with forensic evidence showing she was murdered sometime around noon.

But it would appear Lago knows more than he was letting on, with the CCTV footage showing his trip back home with the body of Franciele earlier that day.

Investigators at the scene found burnt bits of carpet and a credit card in Lago's name, with an insurance policy scam a potential motive.

They also considered a crime of passion as potential reasons behind the grim murder, which Lago has since been arrested for.

He was taken to a police station in Alto Maracana in Colombia over the alleged murder of his wife, with mourners seeing Franciele's husband arrested right there at the side of her grave.

Lago has been remanded in preventive custody pending the outcome of the investigation, which is still ongoing.

Investigators are currently looking at CCTV footage, which showed a sunglasses-wearing Franciele propped up against the window of a car, at which time she is assumed to have already been dead.
