Johnathan Willette was found in bed with his head missing next to bottles of bleach and ammonia, authorities said
The girlfriend of a Las Vegas-area man who was found decapitated in bed and found by his mother has been arrested.
Devyn Michaels, 45, was arrested Aug. 15 on suspicion of murder in the death of Johnathan Willette, 46, and is being held without bond. She said she struck Willette in the head with a wooden stick on Aug. 7 because he was abusive.
"Michaels stated that she did not want to kill Willette and only wanted to hurt him enough that he would have to go to the hospital because she wanted him out of the way so she could figure out what she could do with her children," an arrest report obtained by FOX 5 Vegas said.
Fox News Digital has reached out to the Henderson Police Department for the report.
