A man who was found guilty of murdering his estranged wife and two others on Easter Sunday in 1980 has died in prison.
The Iowa Department of Corrections says 81-year-old Charles Cullor of St. Anthony died Saturday at the Iowa State Penitentiary. Cullor was found guilty of three counts of first-degree murder in the death of his wife, 31-year-old Linda Cullor, along with a brother and sister who were staying with her at her Tama apartment.
He began serving his sentence in October of 1980. The Iowa Department of Corrections did not release a cause of death.
