Chilling four-words from son accused of beheading dad and leaving head in sink
A man has been accused of killing his dad and leaving his severed head in the bathtub - and uttered four chilling words after his arrest.
Bradley Adam Dimmick, 35, is accused of killing 65-year-old Keith Dimmick and a dog in San Antonio, Texas, on October 13. The dog was found near the front door of the crime scene, the victim’s body found in the living room, and his head found in the bathroom.
Officers were first called to the scene due to reports of a “suspicious person” peering into parked vehicles on the West Side of San Antonio. When police attended the scene and found Dimmick, he spoke the chilling words: “I just killed somebody”.

Police dug into his statements, questioning him on what he meant - until he explained that he had killed a man called “Dimmick” at a home in the 2100 block of San Lucas Street. They found the door of the home unlocked and entered after no one responded to their knocks - before uncovering the horrific nature of the killing.

A decapitated human body was discovered in the living room, with the severed head inside a bathtub according to the arrest affidavit.
“Apparent dried blood” was discovered all around the home - including near the front door, the living room, the kitchen, hallways, bedrooms and bathroom, San Antonio Express reported. The home actually had three security cameras in the living room, driveway and front door - with the living room camera pointing at Keith’s decapitated body.
Dimmick allegedly admitted to police that the used weapon was “in the house”. Keith and the dog were both found with “large stomach” wounds and their “intestines extruding” out of their bodies.
His brother, Adam Knopick, told KSAT TV station that his brother suffered from schizoaffective disorder and once attempted to kill his mother. Dimmick’s illness often presented concerning red flags, he explained.
Knopick said Dimmick had been placed into a mental hospital before his release, with Keith set to take care of him. He did not take his medication after his release - and Knopick says his father’s death was avoidable had the mental hospital done welfare checks on his brother.
Dimmick has been charged with first-degree murder and cruelty to non-livestock animals, a third degree felony. His bail is set at $1.5 million.
