Staff writer Bridget Graf reports:
A Dallas man who confessed to killing his wife last year because she wouldn’t stop talking called the woman a “loudmouth” at his trial today.
Jonathan Edelen, 34, took the stand Wednesday afternoon in his own defense. He is being tried on a murder charge in the June 2015 death of Ceaira Ford.
“She was a loudmouth. Happy or not, you were going to hear about it,” Edelen testified Wednesday. “She got aggressive and territorial towards other women.”
Ford, 28, had been dead for a while when police were called to the couple’s apartment at the Primrose Oaks apartments on Perryton Drive near Kiest Park in west Oak Cliff.
“Put the cuffs on me and take me to jail,” Edelen told officers, according to a police report. “I killed my wife.”
