Grinning female shooter opens fire at house party after finding out her ex-husband, new beau were talking
New York Post ^ | February 4, 2026 | Chris Bradford

A female shooter has been convicted of attempted murder after she opened fire at a New Year’s Eve house party when she spotted her estranged husband and her boyfriend talking to each other.

Olivia Clendenin, seen smirking in her mugshot, fired eight shots after she was unable to convince her ex-spouse to leave the shindig in Clearcreek Township, Ohio, according to Warren County prosecutors.

Clendenin’s ex-hubby and new boyfriend mingled at the party, which was held to welcome in 2025, and both talked about their relationships with the shooter.

Clendenin, 29, received word that both men had attended the bash, but her husband refused to leave the party.

She pulled out her .40-caliber handgun and unleashed a volley of shots, which struck an innocent guest in the abdomen.

“The victim had simply been invited to a New Year’s Eve party and found himself in the middle of Clendenin’s barrage of gunfire,” David Fornshell, the Warren County prosecutor, said Tuesday.

“Clendenin may have started 2025 as a free person but will spend the rest of 2026 and at a minimum the decade thereafter incarcerated for attempting to murder at least one of her romantic interests, albeit striking and almost killing an innocent victim.”

Clendenin’s ex told cops last year she was mad at the fact that he and her new partner were socializing.

Clendenin also crashed her mom’s SUV when she tried to leave the party after her rampage, cops told WKRC.

She was also convicted of illegally discharging a firearm at or into a home and two assault charges, and has yet to be sentenced.

"when the ex they tried to destroy ends up doing better in life without them."

That's the whole point of leaving. You're feeling so much better because you left her and you knew you would. And from then on, you'll know better too.

I am aware that it isn’t just women. It’s just that it seems women get more angry about that then men, when the ex does better without them.

There are probably evolutionary/biological reasons or it’s their created internal nature for that.

Consequences ...they never have them.

Bring back public dunkings. Simple and proven successful for over 4 centuries.

Or just wait for the Muzzis to establish courts then the loud, haughty adulteresses get kilt.

This is impossible, because on FR we only picture black perps, because we’re a bunch of racists.

Isn’t that right, Furry?

At the risk of insultingthe good females on this site, isn’t the rate of mental illness in women something like twice that of men in our society?

I don’t understand why so many blondes dye the roots of their hair.

She should be charged with attempted 2nd degree murder.

Two counts - one for the ex-husband, one for her new boyfriend.

I'm sure everyone can figure out where she sits on the Hot/Crazy Matrix.

What a sad situation. I’m so sorry for your loss and what you’ve gone through. It’s a shame your daughter met that guy in the first place. We have such high hopes for our children and then something like that happens. You all got a raw deal in life.

You have to wonder. Did those guys learn something? Or do they enjoy skating on such thin ice?

All she needs is a VERY lengthy stay in prison.

I’m disappointed at the lack of facial tattoos and dyed colorful hair.

Current (but estranged) husband and Current boyfriend were obviously bonding over ‘crazy in the head, crazy in the bed’ discussion.

I think she must be originally from Florida-sounds like a Florida DNA problem.

My former SIL

First pass I read that as Sister in Law, and it wasn't making sense. Please define your terms. Like on Reddit - sometimes FTM means a mentally ill woman that think she's a guy, and sometimes it means First Time Mother.

Folks aren't mindreaders unless they are physically present.
