Grinning female shooter opens fire at house party after finding out her ex-husband, new beau were talking

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.

All she needs is a VERY lengthy stay in prison.


She’ll be “popular”

A head full of bad wiring can certainly be passed down- I have a brother in law with just that, and he has a son who is outdoing his dad- he’s an ex-con and been in jail multiple times since his release. Once for beating up his dad.

I sure as hell don’t want him coming around here….

She is just like the typical “journalist” these days—wants to curate the news to prohibit “hate speech”.

Lol.

The ex was trying to explain that she takes crazy to a whole new level. Now there are two ex’s. I wonder if they will try to warn the next guy who thinks he is the luckiest guy in the world? LOL

Apparently I can’t copy and paste the hot/crazy matrix here, but this lady is clearly in the top left quadrant.
Also, why is he referred to as the “new” boyfriend? At this point, hasn’t he figured out that he should be the “ex” boyfriend??

I have found that people who like to live on the edge usually don't.

Dating dangerous people is fine, dating crazy people does not end well. Some find it hard to tell the difference.

LOL, you are absolutely right! I guess the author didn’t contact him to ask “Are you current or ex?”

The Hot/Crazy Matrix chart showed up for a while, now it’s gone. “StartPage” says “We’re sorry, the page you requested is not found. The URL may be misspelled or the page you’re looking for is no longer available.”

If there was EVER a place where it belonged, this is it!
