A Michigan man has been charged with first-degree murder after he admitted to FBI investigators that he stabbed his mother in the back then disposed of her body with gasoline and fire.
Hunter Allen Loos, 24, reportedly told FBI agents that he preplanned to hurt his 50-year-old mother Renne Bressette days earlier. On Friday at their home in Marquette, Loos allegedly stabbed Bresette in the back, prompting her to respond by hitting him with a coffee pot.
He then continued to stab his mother as she fell onto the couch where she succumbed to her injury’s hours later, investigators say.
Afterward he “covered his mother’s body with a blanket, drove her body to the two-track in the white van, doused her body with gas, and ‘cremated’ he.”
Later that day, police responded to a call about human remains being spotted on fire, behind Bressette’s home on a snow-covered dirt road.
When police and agents arrived at the scene, surveillance footage was obtained to identify a white van that “turned onto Acorn Trail from the dirt road” toward Bessette’s home. That same vehicle was found in her driveway, authorities reported.
When an FBI agent approached the home, Loos answered with blood on both of his bare feet and shirt, as well as a cut on his finger.
After admitting in a subsequent interview that he killed his mother, he was arrested and charged with first-degree murder. If convicted, Loos faces up to life in prison or the death penalty.
A fundraiser has been created online in honor of Bressette. With a current total of $3,800, the campaign aims to bring Bresette’s two daughters home “to be with their family and to arrange their mother’s affairs,” the site reads.
