Charles H Thiede was born in 1860 in Pomerania, Germany to Carl Thiede & Louisa S. (????). He married Maria (Mary) Frank 1884 in Germany.
Charles maintained his innocents until the very end, but does that mean he was innocent? I am not so sure. While reading the newspaper articles I though he might of been until the last article when they explain their theory of the murder and how he did it. It was said he confessed his guilt to several people. Mary was in fear of her husband killing her, he was brutal to her according to her neighbors and friends.
He was messing around with a young Danish girl. The day before her murder they had a heated argument and she ran to a neighbors house to spend the night.
The knife he used had been sharpened two days before it was used on his wife's throat.
