On December 26, 2015, 69-year-old Joseph DiMatteo was found dead inside the trailer home he shared with his wife in Lyons, Oregon. The death prompted a 911 call from his wife, Carolyn DiMatteo, who told dispatchers she had shot him. Officers who responded to the call discovered Joseph deceased at the scene.

Carolyn DiMatteo was arrested that same day and made an initial court appearance soon after; a further appearance was scheduled for January 20. She later pleaded guilty to the shooting on June 1, 2016. No other individuals were implicated or charged in connection with Joseph DiMatteo’s death.

Does anyone have information about Joseph or the couple’s life in Lyons that could add context to what happened?
