Phyllis Dantzer, 88, and her husband Laurence, 91, were found dead at their Lovetown, Alabama, home on March 8, 2014. Houston County deputies concluded the deaths were a homicide-suicide after evidence at the scene suggested the couple had planned the act and that both had consented.

Investigators determined Laurence was responsible for Phyllis’s death before taking his own life; no other suspects were sought and no arrests were made. Sheriff Andy Byrd described the case as unusual because the evidence pointed to a mutual decision rather than one unwilling party.

If anyone knew the Dantzers, their circumstances, or observed anything unusual in Lovetown around early March 2014, please come forward with information.
