Richard Patterson, a 65-year-old, is accused of strangling his fiancée, Francisca Marquinez to death in Florida in 2015. He did not deny choking her to death but disputes the manner in which it happened. Initially, the defendant admitted his girlfriend had choked on his penis during oral sex in her bedroom. The night of the incident, Mr. Patterson called an ex-girlfriend and his daughter notifying them of the incident. His fiancée decomposing body was found lying on a bed and covered with a sheet. It was determined that she had been dead for eight to 24 hours. Officers allegedly found a bag that was filled with paper towels covered in blood and semen inside the kitchen. Blood was also found inside the bedroom and on one of the victim’s fingers.
