Beheading in Farmingdale, New York



Halloween prank gone wrong.  10/29/14

35 year old Derek Ward killed his own 66 year old mother Patricia Ward. He murdered her inside her apartment. Derek had beheaded his mom and dragged the body and head out onto the street. Onlookers thought it was just a macabre Halloween prank but it turned out to be a murder. Moments later the convector jumped in front of a commuter train near Farmingdale, N.Y. and committed suicide. 


Patricia Ward (Left) was currently sharing an apartment with her 35 year old son Derek Ward. He had a history of mental illness/ psychiatric problems. 

When people saw the beheaded body they though it was just an early Halloween prank. They soon learned it was not a prank it was indeed a true murder committed by her son.

  1. I really liked reading this and I really liked the title you gave this piece of writing. it got me to have more interest in it because at first when i was reading it i was kinda on the end. I had read the title before i started reading it though so i figured it had to have something to do with it so i just kept reading and as i was reading it just got better and better as i went. I found it very interesting and i feel like you did a very good job with the whole thing. the only advise i have is maybe next time you have a more world wide topic instead of just one specific topic like this. I did it once and that's what Anton told me so that's all i would advise otherwise i think it was very good and well write.
