Man, 40, 'killed his grandmother by hitting her with a shovel and slitting her throat because she wouldn't let him stay out late'

An Arizona man charged with killing his grandmother beat the woman with a shovel before slitting her throat because he was upset with her strict curfew rules and how much she charged him for rent, police say. Jason Eric Howell, 40, also told authorities he first attempted to kill 78-year-old Helen Jean Lee while she slept, but stopped when she awoke, court records state. A few days later, police said, he attacked her with a shovel then slit her throat before disposing of her body in the desert. Howell is charged with first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder, hindering prosecution and abandoning a body.
