US EditionMichigan man convicted of killing his wife whose body was stuffed in a farm tank years ago
Dale Warner was found guilty after a six-week trial in Lenawee County, where Dee’s remains were found in a sealed fertilizer tank, ending a three-year investigation.
- A Lenawee County jury found Dale Warner guilty on March 10, 2026, of second-degree murder and tampering with evidence after roughly eight hours of deliberation.
- Dee Warner vanished in April 2021 from her Franklin Township home, Michigan State Police took over the probe in August 2022, and investigators discovered her remains inside a welded fertilizer tank on August 16, 2024.
- Evidence included surveillance, drone footage, and digital searches for a 10,000-gallon propane tank, with Jaron asking 'Is that the one we painted and put decals on?'
- Sentencing is scheduled for May 7, 2026, at 8:15 a.m., where Warner faces life in prison with possibility of parole and defense attorney Mary Chartier plans to appeal.
- The case drew national attention via '48 Hours' and 'People Magazine Investigates', while family litigation centers on a 4,000-acre estate and deliberations paused for a juror medical issue and alternate jurors' news exposure.
