Murder of Harland Shuey

On January 11, 2001, 78-year-old Harland Shuey would receive news that his wife who had dementia would not return home. He would call 911 for an injury twice. He was found stabbed in his home at 3310 E. 42nd St. in des Moines, Iowa. He would pass away from his wounds. It was initially thought that it may have been suicide, but the weapon wasn't found in the home. A pair of scissors was found near him and all the knives in the home were tested. None of them matched his wound though.
