Man kept wife's body in drum for 23 years

"A Victorian man kept the remains of his wife hidden in a drum for 23 years while claiming she had run off with another man, a court has heard.

But the charade ended when Frederick William Boyle's son-in-low found the remains during a clean-up, pulling a leg bone from a hessian bag.

Boyle, 58, has pleaded not guilty to the murder of his wife Edwina Ruth Boyle, who he claimed had left him for a truck driver named Ray.

The Victorian Supreme Court today heard that Mrs Boyle, then aged 30, disappeared on October 6, 1983 from the home she shared with her husband and two young daughters at Dandenong North, in Melbourne's south-east."

For some reason this makes me thing of the movie "All of Me" with Steve Martin and Lilly Tomlin..... Use your Indian accent and say "Edwina back in the barrel"
