The victim's wife, Tricia MacCallum, says her husband's death was completely unexpected, but she says from the beginning her home was treated like a crime scene, "I was very upset treated like a criminal or a suspect I was really was shocked and appalled when they insinuated I had something to do with this," MacCallum said.
MacCallum also says she knows investigators are just doing their job.
At this point detectives haven't named a suspect in the case. The Siskiyou County Sheriff's Department is taking the lead in the investigation and were back out at the crime scene Tuesday.

"As far as I know we haven't identified any of his friends or associates that were actually at the scene over that weekend other than family members," the Sheriff said.
MacCallum's wife says while she may feel like a suspect she didn't kill her husband.
"Seriously no there's no reason I would do that I wish I knew what happened there's no reason for me to do that," MacCallum said.
