HOLCOMB, Miss. (AP) - An official says autopsies have been completed on two people killed this past weekend in Grenada County.

A spokeswoman at the state Medical Examiner's Office says the autopsies on the Rev. Jimmy Stauddy and his caregiver, Martha Stoker, were completed Wednesday. Results were being given to Coroner Eddie Robinson, who was not immediately available for comment.

The case remains under investigation.

The 69-year-old Stauddy was a retired Grenada police investigator and had worked in the Greenwood office of the Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics. He had been a minister more than four decades.

Grenada County Sheriff Alton Strider said Stauddy's wife, Scottie, returned home from an out-of-town trip Sunday and found the bodies of her husband and Stoker.
