Diaz was found dismembered and covered in blood as Dicus was arrested and confessed to the gruesome killing. 

The couple had been married for less than four months.

One of Diaz’s friends saw her at a Christmas party less than a month ago where Dicus stormed out.

‘Everyone was having a good time and he left looking really upset,’ the friend told the New York Post.

She believes that Diaz may have been subjected to  domestic violence.

‘She never said there were any problems; maybe she was just embarrassed to admit her relationship wasn’t perfect,’ she explained.

Guidry initially described the victim as a Hispanic woman and said investigators found  ‘a portion of a body, dismembered, and a residence that was covered in blood.’ 

A knife investigators believe to be the murder weapon was found at the home, along with Diaz’s head. 

The law enforcement officials said there had been prior incidents involving the couple.

‘There have been prior calls, disturbance-wise, but nothing to this effect, to this level of violence,’ Guidry told reporters on Thursday. 

The woman is believed to be dead since around 11pm the night before her body was found after Dicus’ family members called law enforcement to their home in the 200 block of Oak Hollow Boulevard.  The call came in around 4.45pm. 

The couple lived in a cottage behind his parents’ house outside of Houston. 

Diaz’s dismembered head was found inside the residence set apart from her body 

Diaz posted this picture of her and her husband just two weeks ago for Christmas. In a comment, Dicus called her 'my beautiful wife' and referred to her as a 'trophy'

The local judge who married the couple also shared a heartbreaking post remembering Diaz and stating his intention for taking down their marriage photo. 

‘As with many of you, I’m greatly saddened and shocked by the news of this tragic event and my prayers are with all of their families,’ Waller County Judge Trey Duhon said.   

‘Out of respect for the families, I have taken down my photo with the couple and the post announcing their marriage, primarily due to the insensitive nature of some comments that were being made on that post,’ he continued. 

The judge said he is ‘confident’ justice will be brought for Diaz and her family.  

‘This matter will now go through the our court system, and I am confident that the Waller County Sheriff’s Office and the Waller County District Attorney’s Office will see to it that justice is served,’ Duhon wrote.
