Corbett woman indicted in husband's death

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) - A Multnomah County grand jury has indicted a woman accused of killing her husband and dismembering the corpse on the couple's farm near Corbett.

The grand jury indicted 56-year-old Hazelynn Stomps on charges of murder, abuse of a corpse and initiating a false police report. She will be arraigned Wednesday.

Stomps told police Feb. 6 that she and her husband, Gerald (pictured at right), were assaulted by two men near a bridge east of Portland. Stomps says she got knocked off the bridge during the incident and her husband was gone when she crawled back to a road.

Sheriff's Deputy Paul McRedmond says investigators found inconsistencies in her story and remains at the couple's place. He said Monday that a medical examiner determined the remains to be "consistent" with the identity of Gerald Stomps.
