Parents of Utah woman accused of killing her husband are arrested after bombshell revelation

The parents of a Utah woman accused of murdering her husband after he confronted her about an affair have been arrested for allegedly helping her clean up the crime scene.

Thomas Ray Gledhill, 71, and Rosalie Christianson Gledhill, 67, were arrested Thursday on four felony counts of first-degree obstruction of justice, ABC4 reported.

The couple allegedly helped their daughter, Jennifer Gledhill, to clean her home after she supposedly fatally shot her husband, Matthew Johnson, on Sept. 21, the outlet said.

Witnesses placed the elder Gledhills at their daughter’s home over a five-hour period around the time of the killing, police said.

Jennifer Gledhill reported Johnson missing on Sept. 28 — but a man subsequently came forward and told police he had an “extramarital affair” with her and that she confessed to killing her husband, according to prosecutors.

The man — who has not been identified publicly — claimed Gledhill told him that her husband “yelled at her” about the affair on Sept. 20.

“The defendant told the informant that she shot Mr. Johnson [the next day] as he slept in their bed,” Salt Lake County District Attorney Sim Gill said.

“She told the informant that she put Mr. Johnson’s body into a rooftop storage container, slid him down the stairs of their home, and loaded his body into the back of their minivan.”

Gledhill “then took her husband’s body north, dug a hole, and buried him in a shallow grave,” the DA added.

She also allegedly destroyed Johnson’s phone, ditched his truck in a different part of the neighborhood and brought her own car to a car wash, where surveillance cameras caught her “thoroughly” cleaning it out.

Police tracked Gledhill’s phone’s GPS data to the exact spot where the truck was later found, but they still haven’t found Johnson’s body.

Right now the guy who she had the affair with is thinking "guilty" instead of "not guilty"...

...or is he? Paging Mr. Lazamataz...

From the article: ...her husband “yelled at her” about the affair... she shot Mr. Johnson [the next day] as he slept in their bed...

The husband should have followed the advice of Tuco Benedicto Pacífico Juan María Ramírez.

I would have encouraged my child to give me the gun so I could dispose of it. Once it was in my hands, I would turn it on them, perform a citizen’s arrest, and hold them until police arrive.

Every single step this woman and her family took was evil.

“I wonder if I could get these guys over here to just do my house”

There’ll be a 10-20 year wait on that...

The NY Post article:

Court records say the couple was going through a contentious divorce and custody battle over their three children. Gledhill had gotten a temporary restraining order against Johnson in late August, but the court denied her application for a permanent measure Sept. 16 — just five days before he is thought to have been shot — after a review found he’d committed no abuse.

So, why was he sleeping there? And, where were the kids, while she was killing their father and disposing of his body?

Nothing says true love like cleaning up your child’s murder scene.
