Speaker 2: Utah mom Jennifer Gludhell rush out and buy a brand
0:36
Speaker 2: new mattress after her husband goes missing, she also demanded
0:41
Speaker 2: her dad give for thirteen thousand dollars.
0:46
Speaker 1: Why that's right.
0:47
Speaker 2: Jennifer Gludhill demands thirteen thousand dollars from her dad just
0:54
Speaker 2: days before she allegedly murders her National guardsman husband. We
1:00
Speaker 2: also learned that at this hour there's another courtroom battle
1:04
Speaker 2: brewing over of course, life insurance. But first let's talk
1:10
Speaker 2: about the thirteen thousand dollars demand. This is what we're
1:14
Speaker 2: learning from court documents we've just obtained. A Utah mom
1:18
Speaker 2: texts her dad claiming she needed thousands of dollars in
1:25
Speaker 2: the days just before her husband goes missing. Air Quota
1:29
Speaker 2: air quote quote, I need thirteen thousand dollars by Friday Okay,
1:35
Speaker 2: now we're learning this from a formerly sealed search warrant
1:39
Speaker 2: in court documents. Gladhill sends the message to her dad,
1:43
Speaker 2: Thomas ray Gluedhill, about seventy two hours before investigators think
1:49
Speaker 2: she murdered her husband, Matthew Johnson, a National Guardsman. They
1:55
Speaker 2: also think she murdered him in the master bedroom of
1:59
Speaker 2: their cat Inwood Heights home.
2:01
Speaker 1: Now where is that?
2:02
Speaker 2: That's about ten or twelve miles outside of Salt Lake City.
2:07
Speaker 1: Hence they buying a new mattress.
2:10
Speaker 2: Okay, before I get into the life insurance brew Haha,
2:14
Speaker 2: what do we know about Thomas ray Glaedhill's disappearance?
2:18
Speaker 3: Trouble is unfolding in the quiet suburbs of Salt Lake City.
2:23
Speaker 3: US National Guard soldier Matthew Johnson hasn't shown up for
2:28
Speaker 3: work and his kids haven't heard from him for days.
2:32
Speaker 3: Where is Matthew Johnson?
2:35
Speaker 4: The day Matthew Johnson is set to return to work,
2:37
Speaker 4: Jennifer Gledhill reports her husband missing. He should have been
2:41
Speaker 4: home from base hours ago, and his phone is going
2:44
Speaker 4: straight to voicemail. As it turns out, Johnson never showed
2:48
Speaker 4: up to work that morning either. Jennifer says she last
2:51
Speaker 4: saw her husband pulling out of the driveway.
2:53
Speaker 2: Neighbors confirm they saw the husband's truck in the driveway.
2:59
Speaker 2: There's a lot of evidence in this case, but bottom line,
3:02
Speaker 2: where is this husband?
3:06
Speaker 1: A father, a special ops officer?
3:09
Speaker 2: Joining me an All Star panel to make sense of
3:10
Speaker 2: what we know right now he is still missing again
3:15
Speaker 2: with me an All Star panel. But first I want
3:17
Speaker 2: to go straight out to Jennifer Tokowski joining us investigative reporter.
3:22
Speaker 1: Jennifer, thank you for being with us.
3:24
Speaker 2: This is some ritzy area where he goes missing. Correct,
3:28
Speaker 2: tell me about it.
3:29
Speaker 5: Cottonwood Heights, Utah, is located just about sixteen miles away
3:34
Speaker 5: from Salt Lake City. They lived in an extremely wealthy neighborhood,
3:38
Speaker 5: a million dollar homes. It's very uppity. I mean something
3:44
Speaker 5: where somewhere that you would never expect something like what
3:49
Speaker 5: is unfolding to happen.
3:51
Speaker 2: There is a massive search for the victim in this case.
3:54
Speaker 2: Matthew Johnson. Of course, when you've got a dad with
3:59
Speaker 2: a huge house, note three children, and every picture I
4:03
Speaker 2: see of them, they're all wearing designer clothes, They're driving
4:06
Speaker 2: fancy cars, the whole shebang. Joining me, Raymond Judice, high
4:11
Speaker 2: profile lawyer out of the Atlanta jurisdiction Raymond. Very often
4:16
Speaker 2: when a guy goes missing like this, you know, they say, well.
4:20
Speaker 1: I'm going to go get a loaf of bread, and
4:21
Speaker 1: they never come back. They just start a new life.
4:25
Speaker 2: And this guy is a special ops Okay, he knows
4:30
Speaker 2: how to disappear.
4:31
Speaker 1: Maybe he just got sick of her and paying for
4:33
Speaker 1: that huge If you've seen the house, it's.
4:36
Speaker 2: Huge, and they've got that. He's got the wife, the
4:39
Speaker 2: designer clothes, the fancy cars, the pool, the works, and
4:44
Speaker 2: you know, sometimes people just take a power and leave Nancy.
4:48
Speaker 6: Back in the seventies is a book called Run Rabbit Run,
4:51
Speaker 6: and that was exactly the premise. Too much pressure, too
4:54
Speaker 6: many car notes, too much house notes, taxes, insurance, go
4:58
Speaker 6: to work every day, childwood on the weekend, taking the
5:00
Speaker 6: kids to soccer. And this guy just says that's enough, Hey.
5:04
Speaker 7: I'll be back.
5:05
Speaker 6: As you said, I'm going to go to them to
5:06
Speaker 6: the quickie market and get a loaf of bread.
5:09
Speaker 7: And he just keeps running.
5:11
Speaker 6: That's not unusual. It's not unusual on you know, post COVID.
5:15
Speaker 6: I think we all look back on the pressures that
5:18
Speaker 6: were all under to obtain, you know, the brass ring
5:22
Speaker 6: of life, when maybe living simply might be better.
5:26
Speaker 2: You know. Sergeant Gary Young is joining us special guest
5:29
Speaker 2: today out of Cottonwood Heights, Utah. He is a sergeant
5:34
Speaker 2: there in the Cottonwood Heights Police Department.
5:36
Speaker 1: Sergeant Young, I've got so many questions for you.
5:39
Speaker 2: But when we're saying deadbeat dad, I mean I'd be
5:43
Speaker 2: running a one hundred and fifty person arraignment calendar, all felonies,
5:48
Speaker 2: of course.
5:50
Speaker 1: And there would be a huge throng of people in
5:52
Speaker 1: the hall. Who were they? They would be the.
5:55
Speaker 2: Second wave of defendants coming in for deadbeat Dad. There'll
6:00
Speaker 2: be just as many of them as there were of
6:02
Speaker 2: criminal defendants, criminals, murders, rapists, child molester's, artists, the works,
6:08
Speaker 2: drug lords. I'm like, who are those guys? Are they
6:11
Speaker 2: on the calendar? If so, they need to be in
6:12
Speaker 2: the courtroom. I'm going to bond forfeit them. And they're like, no, no, no,
6:16
Speaker 2: they're all the deadbeat dads. So when you get a
6:20
Speaker 2: dad that goes missing, my first thought would be dead
6:25
Speaker 2: beat Agree or disagree?
6:27
Speaker 8: Sergeant Yeah, I would, I would. I would think that
6:30
Speaker 8: that would be the easiest explanation. If you know, if
6:32
Speaker 8: someone just disappeared off the radar, you know, are they
6:35
Speaker 8: trying to escape something, are they having a stressful life?
6:38
Speaker 7: Are they going to go commit suicide?
6:39
Speaker 8: You know, who knows what would lead someone to go
6:42
Speaker 8: off the radar and originally on.
6:45
Speaker 2: Hold on, Sergeant Gary Young, Wait a minute, suicide, Wait
6:50
Speaker 2: a minute. I find it much more often that the
6:53
Speaker 2: deadbeat dad leaves for his younger girlfriend. Okay, he's going
6:59
Speaker 2: to commit suicide. He's dumping the family and the wife
7:04
Speaker 2: and the house and the payment and the cars and
7:07
Speaker 2: the college funds and the braces and the whole shebang
7:10
Speaker 2: from his thing. That is what I would immediately think.
7:13
Speaker 2: I would immediately think, oh, he's killed himself. Men leave
7:18
Speaker 2: home every day, thousands of them a day, and typically, yeah,
7:24
Speaker 2: I know, women leave too, but typically the woman is
7:27
Speaker 2: left behind to raise the children, pay the bills, and
7:31
Speaker 2: somehow cobble it all back together again. So in this case,
7:37
Speaker 2: when you first hear he's gone, did you immediately think.
7:42
Speaker 1: Suicide, left the country. What was your immediate thought?
7:47
Speaker 2: Did you ever even consider he just got tired of
7:50
Speaker 2: paying all the bills?
7:51
Speaker 8: My original thought was that these has taking a break.
7:54
Speaker 8: I'm not sure how much stress he's going under. I
7:56
Speaker 8: thought he was just kind of going off the radar
7:58
Speaker 8: and we'd find him coming back into few days, you know,
8:01
Speaker 8: a week at the most that he would.
8:02
Speaker 7: Be coming back.
8:03
Speaker 2: Okay, Sergeant, you do know I'm a crime victim and
8:08
Speaker 2: a former felony prosecutor and a fed before that, I'm
8:12
Speaker 2: on your side.
8:13
Speaker 1: Okay, but here comes the rest of that sentence, taking
8:20
Speaker 1: a break?
8:22
Speaker 2: How what huh? Taking a break from your family? What
8:27
Speaker 2: does take a break mean? Sergeant Gary Young?
8:32
Speaker 8: Well, in your context, I was saying escaping his situation.
8:37
Speaker 8: That's what I referred to as taking a break. I
8:41
Speaker 8: assumed that we would find him, you know, returning back
8:44
Speaker 8: home again. You indicated that he's he's escaping or felony abandonment.
8:49
Speaker 8: There were no indications that he was that type of
8:50
Speaker 8: person he would just abandon his family. Now he's missing.
8:55
Speaker 8: He was reported as missing, and you know, we put
8:58
Speaker 8: out a press at least asking for the public's helped
9:01
Speaker 8: identify him, look for his truck.
9:04
Speaker 7: You know, if anyone has contact with him.
9:06
Speaker 8: To please have him return so we could close out
9:08
Speaker 8: the missing persons and reunite him with his family. To
9:12
Speaker 8: tell you the truth, I didn't think about felling abandonment
9:14
Speaker 8: when we took this call.
9:16
Speaker 2: You know, I'm glad to hear what you just said.
9:20
Speaker 2: Sergeant Gary Young is a special guest with us today.
9:23
Speaker 2: He is a sergeant in the Cottonwood Heights PD. So
9:26
Speaker 2: you're telling me he had no history of taking breaks,
9:30
Speaker 2: as you euphemistically put it, No history of that, no
9:34
Speaker 2: history of not supporting his children ever, nothing like that
9:39
Speaker 2: in this guy's history. Matthew Johnson correct, correct, Okay, that
9:44
Speaker 2: puts things in an entirely different light.
9:49
Speaker 1: Listen to this.
9:49
Speaker 4: As Cottonwood Heids Police continue their exhaustive search for Matthew Johnson,
9:53
Speaker 4: a call goes out for the public's help in finding
9:56
Speaker 4: not only Matthew Johnson, but his truck. Matthew is just
10:00
Speaker 4: I'm just standing five foot nine, weigh one hundred and
10:02
Speaker 4: seventy eight pounds. He has blue eyes and a shaped head.
10:06
Speaker 4: Johnson drives a maroon dodged fifteen hundred pickup.
10:10
Speaker 2: Okay, what does he need a fifteen hundred, Sergeant Young, Well.
10:14
Speaker 8: We're in a I have a pickup truck myself. We're
10:18
Speaker 8: in we're in the West and pickup trucks are a
10:22
Speaker 8: very good utility vehicle. You can go camping with them,
10:25
Speaker 8: you can drive in luxury. You know, they seat five
10:29
Speaker 8: to six people, and they're pretty decent trucks. And when
10:32
Speaker 8: you think about pickups, the fifteen hundred is the lower
10:35
Speaker 8: end of the pickup class.
10:38
Speaker 7: So I think it's a good family vehicle.
10:41
Speaker 8: It's just what a you know, a strapping young man
10:47
Speaker 8: like Matthew Johnson would drive, would be a pickup truck.
10:52
Speaker 8: That's my deal truck.
10:53
Speaker 2: I was just wondering because I thought a Dodge fifteen
10:55
Speaker 2: hundred was heavy duty. He is special What exactly does
11:03
Speaker 2: that mean in this scenario?
11:07
Speaker 1: Why was he special ops? What does that entail for him?
11:09
Speaker 8: He received training and I guess he was deployed, you know,
11:12
Speaker 8: several times overseas on the warrant.
11:14
Speaker 2: Terror Sergeant Young question, what did you put in your
11:17
Speaker 2: plate to the public.
11:18
Speaker 8: I asked our local affiliates in the press if they
11:22
Speaker 8: would broadcast out that we're looking for a missing person
11:24
Speaker 8: for Matthew Johnson. I put out his description where he's
11:28
Speaker 8: lasting at the time frame, and then what you know,
11:33
Speaker 8: a recent photo and his picture of his truck, and
11:36
Speaker 8: then asked for the public's assistance. If they've seen him
11:39
Speaker 8: or his truck, or maybe he has a friend that
11:41
Speaker 8: is in contact with them, they will be able to
11:43
Speaker 8: come forward. And we would like to resolve that missing persons,
11:46
Speaker 8: would like to make it a found person case.
11:49
Speaker 7: And so that's the information we put out.
11:56
Speaker 2: Crime Stories with Nancy Gray. Within seventy two hours before
12:04
Speaker 2: Jennifer Gluedhill's husband vanishes into thin air, she texts her
12:09
Speaker 2: dad demanding thirteen thousand dollars. No explanation, just I need
12:15
Speaker 2: thirteen thousand dollars. Okay, But that's not all. A new
12:22
Speaker 2: question surfaces in the Jennifer Glaedhill case. What happens to
12:27
Speaker 2: the husband's life insurance payout? Because Gladhill is the sole
12:33
Speaker 2: beneficiary of a half a million dollar Prudential life insurance
12:37
Speaker 2: policy Matthew took out with her under suspicion of her
12:42
Speaker 2: husband's death. Nobody yet Prudential is asking the court for
12:47
Speaker 2: guidance on who should get the money. Well, you know,
12:50
Speaker 2: before we get to the money, can we talk about
12:54
Speaker 2: the missing husband. When was the last time this loving
12:58
Speaker 2: husband and father had been seen live?
13:00
Speaker 9: Listen the last time Matthew Johnson is seen by someone
13:03
Speaker 9: other than Jennifer Gledhill is three days before he's reported
13:06
Speaker 9: missing at a neighborhood gas station. Neighbors say they remember
13:10
Speaker 9: seeing Johnson's truck in the driveway. The next day, Johnson's communications,
13:14
Speaker 9: even with his children stop entirely.
13:16
Speaker 1: We're hearing a.
13:17
Speaker 2: Lot about the truck. Isn't it true, Sergeant Gary Young,
13:21
Speaker 2: that when you're looking for a missing person, you're also
13:24
Speaker 2: looking for their vehicle.
13:25
Speaker 8: Yes, no, I'm saying, yes, that's how they get to
13:28
Speaker 8: and from work. They go about their daily lives and
13:32
Speaker 8: pursuits as they drive their personal vehicle, and so ideally
13:35
Speaker 8: he would be with his vehicle.
13:37
Speaker 2: We just saw the same scenario in the case of
13:41
Speaker 2: two missing moms on their way to take children to
13:46
Speaker 2: a birthday party.
13:47
Speaker 1: There was an all out search for.
13:49
Speaker 2: Them until their vehicle was found on a remote country
13:53
Speaker 2: road with a pool of blood nearby a glass from
13:57
Speaker 2: the window. Their bodies later found stuffed into an ice
14:01
Speaker 2: chest and buried in a cow pasture, deep deeply buried
14:06
Speaker 2: and then covered with dirt and chunks of cement. What
14:09
Speaker 2: crack that case? The discovery of the car in this case.
14:15
Speaker 4: Listen ten days after Matthew Johnson is reported missing. His
14:18
Speaker 4: truck is finally recovered. It's parked on the street, not
14:21
Speaker 4: even a mile from his million dollar home. The truck
14:25
Speaker 4: is locked with gas in the tank. Inside the truck,
14:28
Speaker 4: nothing appears out of the ordinary, but cops do not
14:31
Speaker 4: find any more of Matthew's belongings. Investigators begin processing the
14:35
Speaker 4: truck for any evidence that would explain what happened to Johnson.
14:39
Speaker 4: Neighbors say they last saw the truck on the day
14:41
Speaker 4: Johnson went missing.
14:43
Speaker 2: Very curious none of his belongings in his truck.
14:47
Speaker 1: Wouldn't you expect something?
14:49
Speaker 2: I mean, when you look in our minivan, you will
14:52
Speaker 2: probably find items belonging to the twins. You will find
14:56
Speaker 2: dog treats, you will find oh cups of tea, and
15:01
Speaker 2: there are all sorts of indications that somebody has just
15:05
Speaker 2: driven the truck. So Sergeant Gary Young joining us sergeant
15:09
Speaker 2: with the Cottonwood Heights PD on the case of a
15:13
Speaker 2: missing husband and father. When you find a truck about
15:18
Speaker 2: a mile away from their million dollar home, there's nothing
15:21
Speaker 2: in there that belongs to him.
15:22
Speaker 8: There was nothing in there that and indicat that he'd
15:24
Speaker 8: been sleeping in his car or living in his car.
15:28
Speaker 7: And I have to correct that statement.
15:30
Speaker 8: It was about block and a half, almost two blocks
15:32
Speaker 8: away from his house where the vehicle was located, and
15:36
Speaker 8: that aroused our suspicion.
15:38
Speaker 2: And I'm very curious, Sergeant Young, if it's that close
15:41
Speaker 2: to the home, why did it take so long to
15:45
Speaker 2: find it.
15:45
Speaker 8: The way it's it's positioned on the roadway. It's a
15:48
Speaker 8: cul de sac or a dead end street. There's not
15:51
Speaker 8: a lot of traffic volume in there, and it was
15:53
Speaker 8: just parked in front of that, you know, in a
15:55
Speaker 8: residential neighborhood, in a cul de sac or a dead end,
15:58
Speaker 8: and so we didn't find that vehicle for several days.
16:03
Speaker 2: Joining me now is Toby Woolson. He's a forensic biologist.
16:08
Speaker 2: He's a bloodstained pattern analyst at No Slow Forensic Consultation,
16:14
Speaker 2: formerly with Miami DADPD. Can I tell you never a
16:19
Speaker 2: lack of business for a forensics expert at Miami Day Okay.
16:25
Speaker 2: You can find him at no Slow Forensic dot com.
16:29
Speaker 2: And he is an author of a book coming out
16:33
Speaker 2: December thirteen, which is on my must read list.
16:36
Speaker 1: I don't say that very often.
16:37
Speaker 2: Toby called handbook a bloodstained pattern analysis.
16:45
Speaker 1: Now that's going to be some good reading.
16:47
Speaker 2: Toby Handbook a blood stained pattern analysis.
16:50
Speaker 1: But what I want to talk to you about right.
16:52
Speaker 2: Now, in light of your experience with the Department's Forensic
16:56
Speaker 2: Services Bureau at Miami Dade, if there had been foul play, Toby,
17:01
Speaker 2: what would you have expected to.
17:02
Speaker 1: Find in that Dodge fifteen hundred.
17:05
Speaker 10: Well, it depends where the foul play occurred. If it
17:07
Speaker 10: occurs in the truck, then we would process the truck
17:11
Speaker 10: looking for any evidence of biological materials, most likely blood,
17:17
Speaker 10: because it's not normal to find a lot of blood
17:21
Speaker 10: or that in a vehicle. You know, if you think
17:24
Speaker 10: the truck was used for transport, then the bed of
17:26
Speaker 10: the truck becomes the area of high interest because it's
17:31
Speaker 10: easier to put a body in the bed of a
17:33
Speaker 10: pickup truck than it is in the count.
17:35
Speaker 2: That's why it's so critical that forensics check out the bed.
17:39
Speaker 2: I mean, when you're talking about a vehicle to Raymonds,
17:42
Speaker 2: you to Chay, just the importance of a vehicle cannot
17:46
Speaker 2: be emphasized enough.
17:47
Speaker 1: Just let me throw off one example. Top mom Casey Anthony.
17:51
Speaker 2: The mom the grandma opens the door, Okay, Sindy Anthony
18:00
Speaker 2: or daughter top mom Ksey Anthony's car, and she goes
18:03
Speaker 2: WHOA and she tells nine one one. It smells like
18:06
Speaker 2: a dead body. Okay, that smell emanating from the trunk
18:10
Speaker 2: of top Mom's car. And you know, Ray, you and
18:13
Speaker 2: I've been to a lot of mercies, you never mistake
18:15
Speaker 2: that smell.
18:17
Speaker 1: Ever. So, also in the trunk from which the dead body.
18:22
Speaker 2: Smell is emanating is found a hair of baby Kelly,
18:27
Speaker 2: two year old Kelly. Now it's identified through mitochondrial DNA,
18:32
Speaker 2: which you and I know means DNA of the mother. Specifically,
18:37
Speaker 2: that means that hair could only belong to three people,
18:41
Speaker 2: the grandmother Cindy Anthony, the mother, top Mom Casey Anthony,
18:45
Speaker 2: or the baby Kelly. It was not the grandmother because
18:49
Speaker 2: her hair had been died blonde. It was not the
18:52
Speaker 2: mother Top Mom because her hair had also been treated.
18:56
Speaker 2: This was a pristine hair, no treatment whatsoever, a natural hair,
19:01
Speaker 2: a child's hair. It was Cally's hair. And the trunk
19:07
Speaker 2: that smelt like a dead body. Okay. That is why
19:12
Speaker 2: a vehicle is so important. Agree, disagree, totally agree.
19:15
Speaker 1: And also the positioning.
19:17
Speaker 7: Of the vehicle in the case at bar.
19:20
Speaker 6: That pickup truck is close to the scene of the crime.
19:24
Speaker 6: That means somebody could have driven it there, hidden it,
19:27
Speaker 6: quote unquote, and walked back to the scene of the crime.
19:31
Speaker 7: I would all try might.
19:32
Speaker 2: Just drive it off and burn it, like any self
19:36
Speaker 2: respecting criminal would do.
19:38
Speaker 6: I don't disagree with that, but I also say that
19:40
Speaker 6: in a million dollar plus neighborhood, I'll bet there's a
19:43
Speaker 6: whole lot of ring security cameras facing out from all
19:48
Speaker 6: the homes and the cul de sac that show that
19:50
Speaker 6: pick them up. Chuck, get in parked, and somebody get
19:54
Speaker 6: out of the driver's seat.
19:55
Speaker 2: Okay, now you just said something very telling, Judicay, you
19:59
Speaker 2: said leave the truck and walk back.
20:03
Speaker 1: So right there, you're saying walk back.
20:07
Speaker 2: It's got to be within walking distance. Why would you
20:11
Speaker 2: leave the truck right there?
20:14
Speaker 1: Okay?
20:14
Speaker 2: Another issue? Hey, I'm sure you remember this. Like everybody
20:18
Speaker 2: on the panel, all you League Legal is listening right now.
20:21
Speaker 2: Tara Grinstead, Oh, my star's beautiful high school teacher just
20:27
Speaker 2: got her master's, beloved by all of her students, just disappears.
20:33
Speaker 1: Okay, how did that happen?
20:35
Speaker 2: And the tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny town in South Georgia.
20:39
Speaker 2: I remember going through her house with her mother and
20:43
Speaker 2: it looked like a little jewelry box. It was perfectly appointed,
20:46
Speaker 2: beautifully decorated, all by hand, not some fancy interior designer.
20:52
Speaker 2: But I noticed that her bed in her bedroom was askew.
20:58
Speaker 2: Have you ever met one.
20:58
Speaker 1: Of those people?
20:59
Speaker 2: What do you call, doctor Chlobe Carmichael that everything has
21:03
Speaker 2: to be exactly in the right place?
21:06
Speaker 1: What is that? Anal compulsive? What is that?
21:08
Speaker 11: It's an obsessive pass person and they are often considered
21:12
Speaker 11: anal retentive as well. You just combined the terms though.
21:15
Speaker 1: I did that. Okay, hey, you're the shrink. I'm just
21:18
Speaker 1: a trial lawyer.
21:19
Speaker 2: That's why I have you to correct me. So obsessive compulsive, yes,
21:24
Speaker 2: So in a case like that, when you see something
21:27
Speaker 2: totally out of the ordinary, here is this obsessive compulsive
21:32
Speaker 2: perfectly neat. Every thing had to be in place, and
21:35
Speaker 2: her bed was like pushed over, crooked in the room.
21:41
Speaker 2: And I looked at her mother and I said, why
21:43
Speaker 2: is her bed crooked? And she said, I don't know,
21:46
Speaker 2: I've never seen it like that before. Then I found
21:50
Speaker 2: out this Sergeant Gary Young. I found out that Terra
21:57
Speaker 2: Grin said also her coulion, she's an eat nick. She's
22:02
Speaker 2: not crazy. Extended to her car. Have you ever met
22:05
Speaker 2: those people? Their car still smells new after like three years,
22:09
Speaker 2: it's still perfect.
22:11
Speaker 1: She was like that with her car.
22:12
Speaker 2: Her car, I believe it was white. There was mud
22:17
Speaker 2: all up both sides of her car. I'm like, whoa, Okay,
22:21
Speaker 2: that's not right, that's not right. The seat, the driver's
22:25
Speaker 2: seat was way back. There's no way she could have
22:30
Speaker 2: even reached the gas pedal.
22:33
Speaker 1: If with a seat back that far.
22:35
Speaker 2: In this guy's car, Matthew Johnson, Special Ops hebby.
22:41
Speaker 1: Where was his seat when the vehicle.
22:43
Speaker 8: Was located and towed to our evidence processing? It was
22:46
Speaker 8: It was left in the same position as founded and
22:48
Speaker 8: they haven't adjusted it.
22:49
Speaker 2: A Dodge fifteen hundred pickup truck hidden in plain sight.
22:53
Speaker 2: A Special Ops dad goes missing. Then we find out
22:58
Speaker 2: Mommy makes a huge where is the missing dad?
23:04
Speaker 1: Who are these people? Listen?
23:06
Speaker 9: Matthew Johnson fifty one and Jennifer Gludhill, forty one, welcome
23:10
Speaker 9: three children, now eleven, seven, and five. During more than
23:13
Speaker 9: a decade of marriage. The family settles in Cottonwood Heights,
23:16
Speaker 9: a suburb of Salt Lake City, living in a home
23:18
Speaker 9: worth nearly a million dollars. Matthew Johnson is still active military,
23:22
Speaker 9: serving as a National Guardsman. In the Special Option, in
23:25
Speaker 9: Johnson takes a brief leave of absence while the children
23:27
Speaker 9: return to school.
23:28
Speaker 2: In the last hours, we discover you Tah Mom, Jennifer
23:32
Speaker 2: Gladhill not only demanded thousands of dollars from her dad
23:38
Speaker 2: via text just before her husband disappears, that a battle
23:42
Speaker 2: is brewing over her husband's half a million dollar life
23:46
Speaker 2: insurance policy. Right now, Prudential is saying, we're just going
23:50
Speaker 2: to give the money to the court and let you
23:51
Speaker 2: figure it all out. They don't want any part of
23:54
Speaker 2: this dogfight. After reading court document, Silarm Prudential agrees that
23:58
Speaker 2: money's got to go somewhere, either Gledhill or the couple's
24:02
Speaker 2: minor children who were not listed as beneficiaries.
24:07
Speaker 1: The company's problem.
24:09
Speaker 2: Is if they pay the wrong party, they could face
24:12
Speaker 2: legal problems later. Like then they have to pay the
24:14
Speaker 2: right party after the wrong party. He's already spent the
24:16
Speaker 2: half a mill They don't want to pay half a
24:20
Speaker 2: million dollars two or three times?
24:23
Speaker 1: Do you blame them?
24:24
Speaker 2: But back to the facts of Thomas's disappearance.
24:28
Speaker 12: Cottonwood Heights pded search for Matthew Johnson, aware of the
24:31
Speaker 12: fact that the couple is in the midst of a
24:33
Speaker 12: contentious divorce. Jennifer Gledhill initiated the split in July, with
24:37
Speaker 12: proceedings set to be finalized by the end of October.
24:39
Speaker 12: Gledhill says she is afraid of Johnson, claiming Johnson has
24:43
Speaker 12: been violent with her in the past.
24:45
Speaker 2: Really so, she claims he's been violent toward her in
24:49
Speaker 2: the past, But that is not what a judge said.
24:54
Speaker 1: Listen.
24:55
Speaker 12: Seven weeks after Jennifer Gledhill files for divorce, Gledhill files
24:58
Speaker 12: for a protective order against t Johnson. A temporary order
25:01
Speaker 12: is granted, but Gledhill must prove abuse at the hands
25:05
Speaker 12: of her husband for anything more permanent. After reviewing text
25:08
Speaker 12: messages and footage Gledhill taped of several altercations, a judge
25:11
Speaker 12: dismisses the order. The judge says the evidence shows Gledhill
25:15
Speaker 12: is equally confrontational and belittling and demeaning to her husband.
25:19
Speaker 2: Okay, let's go through a lawyer that has handled plenty
25:23
Speaker 2: of similar disputes, Raymond Judice. What does all of that mean?
25:28
Speaker 2: That is in civil court, not my arena. But I
25:33
Speaker 2: know this. She goes for a tro temporary restraining order,
25:37
Speaker 2: and the judge won't do it.
25:39
Speaker 1: He will not extend that.
25:40
Speaker 2: He says, the evidence shows that she is confrontational, not him, Nancy.
25:45
Speaker 6: The standard procedure is that when as someone who feels
25:49
Speaker 6: they were abused goes to the courthouse, in a civil
25:52
Speaker 6: court clerk's office, they apply for a temporary protective order,
25:56
Speaker 6: temporary restraining order, same thing that is all atomatically granted
26:01
Speaker 6: right then and there with an emergency hearing set in
26:04
Speaker 6: front of a judge as quickly as possible, generally within
26:07
Speaker 6: a few days. That is the hearing that we're referencing
26:11
Speaker 6: where the judge took evidence from both sides, allegedly reviewed
26:16
Speaker 6: text messages and some videotape and testimony, and that judge
26:20
Speaker 6: found that there wasn't enough evidence to grant a permanent
26:24
Speaker 6: protective order restraining order, and he dismissed the temporary restraining
26:28
Speaker 6: protective order against.
26:31
Speaker 2: Matthew Johnson you today, have you ever been in court
26:33
Speaker 2: and the lawyer for the other side introduced to something
26:37
Speaker 2: and you're sitting there going, oh, mustars, that helps.
26:40
Speaker 1: Me, and it totally backfires.
26:44
Speaker 2: And that is why you better practice every in court demonstration,
26:49
Speaker 2: have every prop have every poster or every piece of evidence.
26:53
Speaker 1: I mean, do I have to say it doesn't fit?
26:56
Speaker 2: Oh, dear Lord in heaven talking about the SIPs and glove,
27:00
Speaker 2: he put it over two.
27:01
Speaker 1: Singers and went, Okay, it won't fit. And what were
27:03
Speaker 1: they gonna do?
27:03
Speaker 2: Chris Darden russell them in court and make it go
27:06
Speaker 2: down over his hand that said, never ever play anything
27:11
Speaker 2: or bring in evidence that you haven't tested yourself. Because
27:16
Speaker 2: when this wife, Jennifer Gladhiel brings in the video to
27:23
Speaker 2: show the judge why she should get the house and
27:27
Speaker 2: the money and the children in this tro like kick
27:30
Speaker 2: Kim out of the house, he goes, Lady, that doesn't
27:34
Speaker 2: really help you.
27:35
Speaker 4: Listen to this video and text messages are gathered as
27:39
Speaker 4: proof in Gldhill's fight for a permanent order. One video
27:43
Speaker 4: shows Johnson cleaning up glass from a broken family photo.
27:46
Speaker 4: His demeanor calm. Court Commissioner Russell Minus denied the permanent order,
27:51
Speaker 4: determining there was no abuse. He describes the couple's relationship
27:56
Speaker 4: as highly dysfunctional, adding both parties were equally confrontational and
28:01
Speaker 4: that Gluhill did not exhibit any fear of Johnson The
28:04
Speaker 4: commissioner said, the request for a restraining order appears to
28:08
Speaker 4: be a litigation tactic in the pending divorce.
28:11
Speaker 9: Matthew Johnson has been missing five days when Coinwood Hides
28:15
Speaker 9: PD gets a call from a friend of Jennifer Gludhill's.
28:18
Speaker 9: The friend claims Gluhill called before reporting Matthew missing, giving
28:22
Speaker 9: a very different version of events, a.
28:24
Speaker 2: Very different version of events. What she changes her story?
28:29
Speaker 1: Oh, yes, she changes the story.
28:32
Speaker 2: And based on that very different version of events, the
28:37
Speaker 2: dominoes start falling, yacking, talking, gossiping. Why did she call
28:45
Speaker 2: her friend and give a different version of events?
28:49
Speaker 1: What happens next? Listen?
28:50
Speaker 9: Conwood Hights PD execute a search for in at the
28:52
Speaker 9: couple's home. Cops confirmed the suspicion that Gludhill replaced the
28:56
Speaker 9: mattress in their master bedroom, the new one arriving three
28:59
Speaker 9: days after her husband's disappearance.
29:02
Speaker 2: Uh oh, your husband goes missing, a new order, a
29:06
Speaker 2: new mattress. Doctor Chloe Carmichael, I find that very unusual
29:12
Speaker 2: at a time when you need to be scouring the
29:14
Speaker 2: whole county trying to find your husband, pouring out her
29:17
Speaker 2: credit cards and ATM transactions to try to find him.
29:20
Speaker 2: She goes, Wow, I've got a lumpy mattress. That doesn't
29:25
Speaker 2: make sense, doctor Chloe.
29:26
Speaker 11: No, I would agree, Nancy. And moreover, if they had
29:29
Speaker 11: a pending divorce, then you know, people are usually thinking
29:32
Speaker 11: more about trying to kind of get rid of things,
29:35
Speaker 11: not you know, buy new things when there's likely going
29:38
Speaker 11: to be a move happening. Also, it sounds like maybe
29:41
Speaker 11: what psychologists call impression management, when a person you know,
29:46
Speaker 11: goes out of their way to try to frame the
29:48
Speaker 11: other person as as a victim, or rather frame the
29:52
Speaker 11: other person as the aggressor and frame themselves as the victim. So,
29:55
Speaker 11: you know, she's producing these videos and whatnot, but they
29:59
Speaker 11: don't actually show anything incriminating, and there's a lack of
30:03
Speaker 11: any real evidence on her part of you know, injuries
30:07
Speaker 11: or bruising or anything like that. I also find it
30:10
Speaker 11: unusual that she would not tell the police proactively if
30:15
Speaker 11: there had been some sort of a conflict. You know,
30:17
Speaker 11: if she was calling to make a second report about
30:20
Speaker 11: a conflict, why would she not have just told him
30:23
Speaker 11: everything she knew to say, Look, we had a fight,
30:26
Speaker 11: maybe he ran away, Please go try to find him.
30:29
Speaker 11: So the fact that she's withholding information and then changing
30:32
Speaker 11: her story and then possibly making you know, private statements
30:36
Speaker 11: to somebody else. She's not appearing like a consistent witness here.
30:40
Speaker 2: Sergeant Gary Young joining US, Cottonwood Heights PD. Sergeant Young,
30:45
Speaker 2: I remember the horrible moment, and it only lasted about
30:49
Speaker 2: five minutes. Max I was in a giant babies or
30:54
Speaker 2: us and I turned around and I had my daughter
31:00
Speaker 2: was still standing there, but my son was gone. He's
31:03
Speaker 2: only two and a half three. I picked her up
31:06
Speaker 2: like football and started running, screaming bloody murder to lock
31:13
Speaker 2: the front doors and the back doors because my son
31:16
Speaker 2: was missing. I didn't think about ordering any mattress in
31:20
Speaker 2: that moment. I didn't gather my things that I had
31:24
Speaker 2: already put in the cart for them and casually stroll
31:28
Speaker 2: up front and start check out. Doctor Chloe was really
31:32
Speaker 2: calm in her answer. But I find that crazy odd
31:35
Speaker 2: that she, while her husband is missing, orders an nee mattress.
31:38
Speaker 1: That doesn't bother.
31:39
Speaker 8: You, No, that doesn't bother me because UH been married
31:42
Speaker 8: for thirty years, and if we make a purchase like
31:45
Speaker 8: a mattress, that's a husband and wife decision, and that
31:48
Speaker 8: may take a couple of days or visits because You're
31:51
Speaker 8: going to be a couple thousand dollars in a mattress,
31:53
Speaker 8: So that would that's not a normal every day or
31:56
Speaker 8: for the moment, you know, President's Day mattressself kind of thing.
32:00
Speaker 7: I would think that they had have spoken about her.
32:02
Speaker 8: It wouldn't take place during a crisis such as your
32:05
Speaker 8: missing husband.
32:06
Speaker 2: When you and your coworkers execute a search warrant, Sergeant
32:13
Speaker 2: Gary Young, what if anything did you find in the home.
32:17
Speaker 8: Ideally we're going to find physical executing a warrant, we
32:21
Speaker 8: would like to have any evidence of the crime, hopefully
32:24
Speaker 8: blood or other bodily fluids.
32:27
Speaker 7: That would be the ideal situation that we would be
32:29
Speaker 7: able to find.
32:30
Speaker 2: That. Isn't it true that blood was found on the
32:33
Speaker 2: slats beneath the knee mattress and a large bloodstain on
32:38
Speaker 2: the carpet below the bed. The room looked as if
32:42
Speaker 2: it had been meticulously clean.
32:50
Speaker 1: Crime Stories with Nancy Grace Jennifer Gladhill.
32:58
Speaker 2: You toll mom whose husband suddenly vanishes into thin air,
33:03
Speaker 2: demanding thousands of dollars thirteen thousand dollars to be exact
33:06
Speaker 2: from her father within seventy two hours or her husband
33:08
Speaker 2: disappearing This is seventy two hours before her husband disappears.
33:13
Speaker 2: Now we learn a life insurance policy battle is brewing.
33:16
Speaker 1: This is the deal.
33:18
Speaker 2: If the money's paid to Gledhill and she's convicted, her
33:21
Speaker 2: children would be able to make a legal claim to
33:24
Speaker 2: get that money themselves, and she would have already spent
33:26
Speaker 2: it on legal fees.
33:28
Speaker 1: On the other side, if.
33:29
Speaker 2: It's paid to the children and she's acquitted, then she
33:33
Speaker 2: can sue for the money to be returned to her.
33:36
Speaker 2: So they're looking right down the wrong end of a
33:39
Speaker 2: barrel to the tune of about at one point five
33:41
Speaker 2: million dollars. But that's Prudential's problem. My concern is what
33:46
Speaker 2: happened to Gledhill's husband. Matthew help me, Toby, explain what
33:52
Speaker 2: we're saying.
33:53
Speaker 10: Well, when there's signs of a cleanup, which is the
33:57
Speaker 10: bleach and the cleaners, it should be curiosity. Especially in
34:01
Speaker 10: a bedroom. You know there's so many things in there
34:05
Speaker 10: that will retain evidence. The mattress is nothing more than
34:10
Speaker 10: a big sponge, so cleaning in that is virtually impossible.
34:13
Speaker 10: In my opinion, I've never seen anyone successfully clean a
34:16
Speaker 10: mattress because you may get it most of it off
34:20
Speaker 10: the surface, but there's going to be plenty inside, and
34:22
Speaker 10: then if there's enough blood, sufficient blood that it bleeds
34:26
Speaker 10: through the mattress and ends up down on the slats
34:28
Speaker 10: supporting it and the carpet underneath. Again, you're working trying
34:32
Speaker 10: to clean away something that's very porous, So the slats
34:36
Speaker 10: usually are wood. They're going to absorb the blood, so
34:39
Speaker 10: it's going to be difficult to get it out of
34:41
Speaker 10: the wood. But the carpet is a bigger factor. I've
34:44
Speaker 10: found in many of the cases where I've gone looking
34:47
Speaker 10: for a cleanup, carpeting is where we find it because
34:51
Speaker 10: they may clean the surface so that you can't see
34:53
Speaker 10: the blood, but there's this pad under the carpet that
34:56
Speaker 10: actsually a sponge also, and you can just peel a
34:59
Speaker 10: carpet back fine blood frequently weeks if there's a large
35:03
Speaker 10: volume weeks after the event that's still wet. So there's
35:07
Speaker 10: many places in this setting that would be potentially harboring
35:12
Speaker 10: blood clean up. The other thing is is that when
35:14
Speaker 10: people clean up crime scenes, they're not blood experts, and
35:17
Speaker 10: they clean up what they visually see. They miss the
35:20
Speaker 10: small stuff. So when I go into process a crime
35:23
Speaker 10: scene and look for blood. I'm using whatever methodology usually
35:28
Speaker 10: visual to lead me to the areas they've missed. So
35:32
Speaker 10: there's a lot of things here that would have applied.
35:34
Speaker 10: And the replacement of the mattress would be a key
35:37
Speaker 10: piece of interest, because you know, knowing that you're not
35:40
Speaker 10: going to get the blood out of that mattress, you
35:43
Speaker 10: know you've got to replace it. It's just, especially with
35:47
Speaker 10: the volumes of blood you're talking about here, If there
35:49
Speaker 10: was enough blood to bleed through and get to the
35:51
Speaker 10: areas under the mattress, that mattress had to be very.
35:55
Speaker 12: Saturated Bloodhill's friend recounts to police what Bloohill openly admitted
35:59
Speaker 12: the before reporting her husband missing. Gledhill shot Johnson in
36:03
Speaker 12: the head while he slept, then buried his body in
36:05
Speaker 12: a shallow grave. Gledhill revealed the approximate location of the grave,
36:09
Speaker 12: telling her friend she's trying to determine next steps.
36:12
Speaker 1: Next steps? Is that what it's called?
36:14
Speaker 2: Okay, So, Ray, how does her gossiping to her friend
36:18
Speaker 2: fit into your scenario? Why does she have to call
36:21
Speaker 2: the friend and tell the whole thing and now she's
36:23
Speaker 2: trying to figure out next steps?
36:25
Speaker 6: Well, that certainly shows after death behavior But what the
36:30
Speaker 6: defensive battered women's syndrome is is everything that leads.
36:34
Speaker 7: Up to the homicide is a homicide.
36:37
Speaker 6: But why why is there enough evidence of abuse sufficient
36:41
Speaker 6: that a judging jury would say, we understand what she
36:45
Speaker 6: did her behavior after that. Okay, that's a different argument.
36:49
Speaker 6: I don't think it's helpful, Don't get me wrong. You
36:51
Speaker 6: would rather not have as a defense lawyer that kind
36:54
Speaker 6: of a text message, and that friend who's going to
36:56
Speaker 6: testify for the state obviously come into evidence. But you've
37:00
Speaker 6: got to come up with a defense unless you argue
37:02
Speaker 6: it was a third party, a burglar, somebody else, or
37:05
Speaker 6: a lover. And I don't see anything right now that
37:08
Speaker 6: would support that as your primary defense.
37:10
Speaker 1: Okay, So bottom line, you got to go somewhere. What
37:14
Speaker 1: are you going to do.
37:16
Speaker 2: You've managed to get your husband's blood all over the
37:18
Speaker 2: slats under the bed.
37:21
Speaker 1: You're basically busted, unless you.
37:23
Speaker 2: Want to blame it on the five year old for
37:26
Speaker 2: trying to do a cleanup.
37:27
Speaker 1: Of the carpet.
37:28
Speaker 2: You heard what Toby Wilson said, when they go under
37:31
Speaker 2: that carpet.
37:32
Speaker 1: The lord only knows what they're going to find under there.
37:36
Speaker 2: But this is not the first time we would see
37:39
Speaker 2: a wife meticulously planning a murder. Does the name Corey
37:45
Speaker 2: Richins ring a bell also known as moscow mule? Mom?
37:49
Speaker 1: Listen?
37:50
Speaker 13: Police find Eric Richins dead on his bedroom floor. According
37:54
Speaker 13: to court documents, Richings and his wife, Corey, we're celebrating
37:58
Speaker 13: a business accomplishment. The night he died, Police say Corey
38:02
Speaker 13: claimed she made him Eric a moscow mule, which he
38:05
Speaker 13: drank in the bedroom. They say Corey told authorities that
38:09
Speaker 13: she left to help one of their children and returned
38:12
Speaker 13: to the bed several hours later. It was then, they say,
38:15
Speaker 13: that she noticed Eric was called to the touch and
38:18
Speaker 13: called nine to one one.
38:19
Speaker 2: And then there's Emily U, the so called draino wife.
38:26
Speaker 1: Listen.
38:26
Speaker 9: Radiologist Jack Chin says he noticed a chemical taste in
38:29
Speaker 9: his drinks, so he set up a hidden camera in
38:32
Speaker 9: their kitchen, capturing video evidence of his wife you you
38:36
Speaker 9: allegedly taking dreno from under the sink and pouring it
38:39
Speaker 9: into his lemonade. On three separate instances. A doctor diagnoses
38:43
Speaker 9: Chin with two stomach alsters, gastritis and esophagus inflammation. Hidden
38:47
Speaker 9: video is enough for cops and the forty five year
38:49
Speaker 9: old dermatologists is placed under arrest for trying to poison
38:52
Speaker 9: her husband.
38:53
Speaker 2: And what's so interesting about that case is this woman, who,
38:56
Speaker 2: as I recall, was a doctor herself. As caught on
38:59
Speaker 2: the the husband gets suspicious when his stomach becomes inflamed,
39:05
Speaker 2: and he posts video cams all around the kitchen and
39:09
Speaker 2: the home. You see her on video going over to
39:14
Speaker 2: the kitchen cabinet and reaching in. He wisely set up
39:17
Speaker 2: a camera inside the kitchen cabinet and you see her
39:20
Speaker 2: hand reach in and get the draino and pull it out,
39:25
Speaker 2: and then she doctors his morning drink. Okay, Doctor Chloe Carmichael,
39:29
Speaker 2: joining us clinical psychologist, explain what's happening in these scenarios.
39:34
Speaker 11: Yeah, Well, especially with our current situation, I look at
39:38
Speaker 11: what psychologists call grandiosity. So you had ask how it
39:42
Speaker 11: could be that she could think that she could just
39:44
Speaker 11: literally clean this up out of the carpet, and if
39:49
Speaker 11: it is true that indeed she took it into her
39:51
Speaker 11: own hands to just murder her husband, right there, we
39:55
Speaker 11: have an element of grandiosity.
39:57
Speaker 1: And once you've.
39:58
Speaker 11: Done an act like that, or even are preparing to
40:01
Speaker 11: do an act like that, more than likely, unless you're
40:04
Speaker 11: a total psychopath, you would have what psychologists call hot cognition,
40:09
Speaker 11: so you know, your mind is kind of supercharged, and
40:12
Speaker 11: maybe you're not even thinking super clearly, and so that
40:15
Speaker 11: might be why you know, she could do something like
40:18
Speaker 11: that without really thinking it through. But again, I'm looking
40:23
Speaker 11: at the grandiosity possibility, the idea that she would think
40:26
Speaker 11: that she could just you know, make these videos and
40:30
Speaker 11: paint him a certain way and paint herself a certain
40:32
Speaker 11: way and then maybe potentially go murder him and confide
40:35
Speaker 11: in a friend and think it would never come back
40:37
Speaker 11: upon her. There's there's a real egoism there if all
40:42
Speaker 11: of that is true.
40:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, Jennifer Scotski joining me, investigative reporter, Jennifer. I'm always
40:46
Speaker 2: amazed that killers will speak to their compadres, their cohorts,
40:53
Speaker 2: not even co defendants, and expect them to keep quiet.
40:59
Speaker 1: That's always been so bizarre to me.
41:01
Speaker 2: That you murder someone, in this case, murdering him in
41:06
Speaker 2: his sleep, so that's not self defense, telling friends about it,
41:11
Speaker 2: expecting them to be in on your secret.
41:14
Speaker 11: Yes, Nancy, it's definitely a case of that would be
41:17
Speaker 11: a great example of grandiosity, that she could do something
41:20
Speaker 11: like murder and then confide in a friend and as
41:23
Speaker 11: you said, expect that the friend would just obey her instructions,
41:28
Speaker 11: you know, to keep this, you know, murder confession quiet Essentially,
41:32
Speaker 11: that would definitely speak to a grandiosity or kind of
41:36
Speaker 11: a fuzzy connection with reality and social norms and what
41:40
Speaker 11: she could expect from people.
41:41
Speaker 1: What about it, dinnerfer Skouski.
41:43
Speaker 5: Now, just to me, just looking at all of this,
41:47
Speaker 5: who it sounds like your classic dumb killer. I mean,
41:53
Speaker 5: it seems that she just didn't think at all. I mean,
41:55
Speaker 5: who buys a new mattress after who goes to their
41:58
Speaker 5: friend and says I did this? Or confidential informant as
42:02
Speaker 5: they're calling this person?
42:04
Speaker 1: Who does that?
42:05
Speaker 5: Nobody with the same normal mind is ever going to
42:09
Speaker 5: think they're going to get away with Mark the way
42:13
Speaker 5: that miss Jennifer has tried to do thus far.
42:18
Speaker 2: And of course I want you to take a look
42:20
Speaker 2: at the classic black widow. Dahlia Dippolito offers a hitman
42:25
Speaker 2: seven thousand dollars to kill her husband. She sets up
42:28
Speaker 2: an alibi for herself in their early morning hours, where
42:32
Speaker 2: she says she's going to the gym. The hitman would
42:36
Speaker 2: go in the home and kill her husband. Unbeknownst to her,
42:40
Speaker 2: of course, she has done a deal with an undercover
42:44
Speaker 2: surveillance officer. This is her when Ellie law enforcement come
42:50
Speaker 2: to tell her her husband is dead. Little do they
42:55
Speaker 2: does she know this is all part of a sting.
42:58
Speaker 1: So watch Dahlia Dipoleted. Watch out, Meryl Street, She's coming
43:04
Speaker 1: for you.
43:04
Speaker 7: Is your husband Michael? Okay, I'm sorry to tell you man,
43:07
Speaker 7: he's been chilled. He's been killed, Tod.
43:16
Speaker 1: Right now, we need to get you to state.
43:19
Speaker 7: We need to get.
43:21
Speaker 1: I can't look man. We have to do our job.
43:23
Speaker 8: If you want the finest pillera we need you to
43:26
Speaker 8: calm down.
43:28
Speaker 7: I need you to do with thes okay.
43:30
Speaker 2: Sergeant Gary Young joining us from Cottonwood p D. Where
43:34
Speaker 2: is the search? Where did she allegedly stay she buried
43:39
Speaker 2: her husband?
43:40
Speaker 8: Are still looking for the deceased and we weren't given
43:45
Speaker 8: a specific location. We have put out about twenty five
43:48
Speaker 8: warrants now for cell phones, computer history. We're still following
43:55
Speaker 8: up on all our leads, trying to get the best
43:58
Speaker 8: known location. I mean, be a needle haystack to just
44:00
Speaker 8: randomly go drive around and look for a place. We're
44:03
Speaker 8: still trying to narrow that down, and several leads we've
44:07
Speaker 8: looked into that haven't been very fruitful, and so we're
44:10
Speaker 8: still exploding that electronic information trying to gain a better
44:14
Speaker 8: location on where we should focus our search.
44:16
Speaker 1: And where is Jennifer Gledhill. Now listen.
44:19
Speaker 12: Jennifer Gledhill is arrested outside her home nine days into
44:22
Speaker 12: the search for Matthew Johnson on suspicion of murder and
44:24
Speaker 12: tampering with evidence. The couple's three children have been placed
44:27
Speaker 12: in the care of a relative, as Gledhill has been
44:30
Speaker 12: denied bail. Gledhill will remain in the Salt Lake County
44:33
Speaker 12: Jail due to fears she will further tamper with evidence
44:37
Speaker 12: or flee based on the comments she made to her friend.
44:40
