According to the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office, Patricia Hill, 69, of White Hall, called 911 Saturday afternoon and told dispatchers that she had shot her husband. When deputies arrived at the couple's home, they found Frank Hill, 65, dead inside a utility shed and detained his wife, who "waived her rights and agreed to speak with investigators," according to a news release.
Patricia Hill told deputies that "she disagreed with her husband's purchase of video pornography via the television guide," the news release said. Although she canceled his order, her husband reportedly placed another one. When she found out, she confronted her husband, who was inside the shed, authorities said.
