A tattoo artist has been arrested for allegedly killing the man who brought him up and decapitating his corpse with a shovel.
Henry James Baxter lived in a bizarre ménage-à -trois with his victim Erman Thompson and Mr Thompson’s wife Ashley in Nashville, Tennessee.
He has now confessed to killing the man who treated him as a son after a fight over Mrs Thompson last Sunday, according to police.
Baxter, 37, had been close with Mr Thompson, 48, since he was a child, and the pair had a father-son relationship, according to News Channel 5.
More recently, they lived in the same house along with Mrs Thompson and her three children.
Two of the children had been fathered by Mr Thompson, while the other was Baxter’s child.
Last week, according to a police report, the two men started arguing over the woman they both loved, and after the row became heated Baxter shot Mr Thompson in the head with the victim’s own gun.
All three children were in the house at the time of the argument.
