Police in Florida have arrested a man for the death of his wife in January.
Citrus County deputies said they were called to the home of Dean and Christine Nelson on January 27 and found 47-year-old Christine dead from an apparent drug overdose.
Investigators linked her death to methamphetamine they said was given to her by Dean Nelson, 52, and after the medical examiner determined she died from acuse methamphetamine toxicity, he was arrested this week.
Nelson has been charged with murder as a result of unlawful distribution of methamphetamine and is being held without bond. It does not appear investigators believe he intended to kill his wife.
