The ex-mayor of a small town in California was found dead along with his wife. As a federal appeals lawyer in California explains, the wife was apparently suffering from advanced Alzheimer’s.
The Victims in the Case
73-year-old Vaso Medigovich was the former mayor of Corte Madera. He and his wife Meredithe had retired to the affluent Park La Brea area. He was elected mayor in 1987. The Medigovich’s lives appear to have ended in tragedy. The couple was found dead in their home. Mr. Medigovich allegedly suffered a single gunshot to the head while his wife was apparently asphyxiated in her bed. A murder-suicide is suspected. The theory is that Mr. Medigovich killed his wife, then himself. A federal appeals attorney in California explains a possible heartbreaking motive police are exploring.
