Murder Charges Dropped Against Man Accused Of Beating Wife With Hammer

Murder charges have been dropped against a Romeoville man accused of beating his 66-year-old wife with a hammer because autopsy results show the woman died of a heart attack.

Will County prosecutors have filed new, reduced charges against 67-year-old John Sadler, who was charged last July with killing his wife, Carol, then leaving her body in their southwest suburban home for more than a week.
