A man allegedly tied his ex-girlfriend to a wheelchair and made her watch him dig her grave before murdering her.

Tony Charboneau ‘punched and stomped’ Amy Hogue, 43, after a verbal argument on June 20, according to probable cause statements with the Associate Circuit Court of Washington County.

Brandi Luffy admitted to investigators that she helped Charboneau put Hogue in a wheelchair and tie her to it with ratchet straps.

Luffy said she and Charboneau moved Hogue to the woods where he shot her ‘in the head, then buried her’, according to a prosecutor.

Charboneau ‘spent the rest of the day burying her in the grave, covering her with large rocks and tree limbs’, states he release obtained by The Independent.

Meanwhile, Luffy remained inside a vehicle to keep a watch out as Charboneau ‘shot and buried the victim’. He also destroyed Hogue’s purse and the ratchet straps and a tarp used in the criminal act.

Hogue was identified by her son Corbin Crider’s wife, Taylor Crider.

‘Amy in no way deserved what happened to her,’ wrote Taylor in a GoFundMe page.

‘Corbin and I had just had our son and she went missing 4 days after he was born. Due to us being in Louisiana, and Amy in Missouri, Amy never got to meet her first grandchild.

She was taken away from them way too soon. Nobody deserves to go the way she went. She leaves behind a family that loved her dearly.’
