The ex-husband of Kimberly Lindsey, a mother of three who was found slain in a Glades sugar cane field last week, was found dead in Miami, the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office said Sunday.
Albert Lambert, 52, died of a narcotics overdose at his sister’s house on Coral Gate Drive in Miami, said Palm Beach County Sheriff Ric Bradshaw.

“What started out as a missing person case…unfortunately quickly became a homicide investigation,” said Bradshaw, who said the Sheriff’s Office was in the process of going to Miami to charge Lambert with first-degree murder.
Lindsey, who went missing last week, was found dead Wednesday in Hendry County. Her fingertips had been cut off. The Sheriff’s Office identified the decapitated body as that of the 49-year-old Friday.
Lambert’s sister and her boyfriend were seen walking out of the Miami house carrying Lambert’s body in a sheet Sunday morning, authorities said.
Bradshaw said Lambert was under 24-hour surveillance once the Sheriff’s Office determined that bloodstains on his clothes matched the blood of his ex-wife.
“There’s no doubt that [Lambert] was the suspect that committed this crime,” said Bradshaw.
Lindsey, who lived in Palm Beach Gardens, was a school nurse at Bak Middle School of the Arts in West Palm Beach.
The couple was going through court hearings over alimony and child support for their three daughters despite finalizing their divorce in November 2012, according to the Sheriff’s Office. Authorities said Lambert was refusing to cooperate in court and that he told the judge he would either “disappear or go to jail” before he paid any support.
“The tragedy here is not only do these kids not have a mother, now they don’t have a father,” said Bradshaw.
