A New York man has admitted to murdering his ex-girlfriend and dismembering her body after their relationship fell apart. Damon Foy, 50, of Kerhonkson, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in the death of Alberta Dale, 44, who was from Pennsylvania, as per the New York Post. According to the Ulster County District Attorney’s Office, Foy killed Dale, and was in the process of disposing of her body when authorities intervened.
The investigation began after Dale’s family contacted law enforcement because they were worried about her well-being. Deputies initially conducted a welfare check before launching a missing person investigation. When they visited Foy’s apartment, they found Dale’s car, but she was nowhere to be found.
