CLOVER, S.C. (CBS NEWS) - Authorities say a South Carolina woman has been charged with murder after killing her husband by putting eye drops into his water for several days.
York County deputies said 52-year-old Lana Clayton confessed to investigators after an autopsy uncovered a high amount of tetrahydrozoline in her husband's body.
The chemical is found in over-the-counter eye drops such as Visine.
Authorities say 64-year-old Stephen Clayton was found dead July 21 in the couple's home in Clover. WSOC-TV reports that his funeral was held in the home's back yard before the autopsy results revealed the cause of death.
