Argie Jeffers Found Guilty of Killing Woman Whose Dismembered Body Was Found In River
Rosinsky said Jeffers did not look inside the buckets before throwing them out.
The defense argued that Jeffers would not be physically able to kill, dismember and dispose of Sowards’ body at his age.
“What they’d like you to believe is that my 74-year-old client brutally shot and killed the love of his life, and then chopped her up into pieces like she was a jigsaw puzzle, threw her into buckets that were in his yard, walk all the way around his property — about seven yards — to the edge of a deep hill down the river. And he carried Sowards in buckets into the Guyandotte River three times,” Rosinsky told the jury. “Then they want you to believe Carrie floated three miles to the Ohio River before she spilled out and came to the shore.”
