Man Allegedly Stabs Wife to Death, Drives Body to Police Headquarters

PHOENIX -- A 58-year-old man has been charged with murder after police say he stabbed his wife to death then drove to Phoenix police headquarters and confessed.

According to police, Dwight Wesley, walked into the station late last night and admitted stabbing his 46-year-old wife, Delores Glover, to death.

According to police, Wesley and his wife allegedly got into an argument while she was driving him to work Wednesday night. Officers believe Wesley stabbed her while she was driving.

He then got behind the wheel and drove, with his wife's body in the car, to police headquarters at Sixth and Washington streets. He walked into the building, leaving a trail of blood behind him, and turned himself in, police said.

Officers on duty said Wesley had blood on his shirt. They thought he was a victim who had come to report a crime. They said that's when he confessed to murdering his wife and gave them a knife.

Investigators went outside and found Glover's body in the car parked on Sixth Avenue, right next to police headquarters. Glover had been stabbed several times. Paramedics were called out, but they were unable to save her.

According to Sgt. Tommy Thompson of the Phoenix Police Department, it was while driving Wesley to work that Glover told her husband she wanted a divorce. That's when Wesley became upset and allegedly pulled a knife and stabbed her.

Investigators tried to questioned Wesley, but they say after his first alleged confession, he stopped talking.

Wesley has been booked into the Maricopa County Jail. He has been charged with murder.

PHOENIX -- A grand jury has indicted a Phoenix woman accused of torturing, killing and dismembering a man whose body was found burning in a trash can earlier this month.

The body of Terry Neely, 46, was found on Aug. 5. Investigators arrested Angela Simpson in connection with the case less than two weeks later.

On Thursday, a grand jury indicted Simpson on charges of first-degree murder, kidnapping and abandonment or concealment of a dead body -- all felonies. In a jailhouse interview with 3TV's Marissa Wingate, Simpson, 33, admitted killing Neely, who was confined to a motorized wheelchair, because he was a "snitch."

"I beat him to death. ... I killed him and cut him up," Simpson said.

Since that interview, Simpson has refused to talk to the media again.

According to Phoenix police investigators, Neely had been stabbed 50 times and beaten. A nail had also be driven into his head.

Police also arrested Edward McFarland, believing he helped Simpson get rid of Neely's body. McFarland is charged with abandonment or concealment or dead body and hinder prosecution.

"The level of cruelty alleged in this case is severe, and we will aggressively prosecute this case," said Coutny Attorney Andrew Thomas in a news release. "Our office will determine in the near future whether to seek the death penalty for this defendant."

In a jailhouse interview with 3TV's Marissa Wingate, a Phoenix woman admitted killing a man confined to a motorized wheelchair after torturing him for days because he was a "snitch."

Angela Simpson, 33, told 3TV she promised Terry Neely sex and drugs in order to get him to come to her North Phoenix apartment.

Once there, Simpson said she beat Simpson with a tire iron, hammered a nail into his head, pulled his teeth and strangled him with a television cord.

"You made him watch it through a mirror?" Wingate asked.

"Yes, I did," Simpson replied calmly. "He needed to see what he deserved."

Wingate describe Simpson as articulate and straightforward. When Wingate asked her why she killed Neely, the answer, to Simpson, seemed simple.

"I don't want my children or the people I consider family to be in a place where there are snitches," she said.

Neely lived in an assisted-living home not far from Simpson's apartment and often rode around in his motorized wheelchair. Simpson admitted that she barely knew Neely, but she did consider him a snitch.

"He told on a righteous person years ago," she said. "He told me that."

"I beat him to death. ... I killed him and cut him up," she said.

Simpson told Wingate she dismembered Neely's body and stuffed it into a trash can, which she then torched. The burning trash bin was found outside a North Phoenix church on Aug. 5. Police arrested Simpson for the murder on Aug. 19.

Simpson, who was already in jail when police caught up with her, told Wingate this is not the first time she's killed.

"I believe informants and child molesters should be killed ... period," she said.

Simpson said she was "kind of relieved" that police arrested her. She also said she takes medication and might be considered mentally ill.

"I think something's wrong with the world that I live in, but, according to other people, yes, somethiing is wrong with me."

Wingate asked Simpson if she felt guilty about Neely's death.

"Guilty? For ridding the world of a snitch? No, I don't feel guilty," she answered.

Death Caught Up To Columbine Survivor

This is some final destination shit!

AZCentral- Tiffany Lien survived the shootings at Columbine High School, but she didn't survive the strip-club subculture in Phoenix.

A jealous husband kicked in the door of the room where she was sleeping with another man and shot the lovers to death.

On Thursday, a Maricopa County Superior Court jury sentenced Rodney Hardy to death for the murders.

Hardy and Lien had lived together for more than two years. Hardy, 47, was an ex-con with a successful limousine service, and in his off hours he was a regular at more than one Valley strip club. Lien, 21, was a stripper, and Hardy said he had rescued her from the streets when she was pregnant and hooked on drugs. In his court testimony, he said he tried to take her home to suburban Denver, but she had refused to return to her family after they got there. He even took her to Vegas to marry - though he was still married to another woman at the time.

On Aug. 26, 2005, according to police records, Hardy smacked Lien. He hit her again the next morning and she left, spending the weekend partying with a stripper girlfriend and Don Stanciel, 32, who was another strip-club regular. Police records said Stanciel had recently moved to Phoenix from California to look for a job.

Over the weekend, Hardy called Lien repeatedly to ask her to come home. Stanciel took the phone once and told Hardy that Lien was with him.

In the early hours of Aug. 28, 2005, Hardy drove to the Tempe apartment complex where Lien's friend lived. When she came out of her apartment to buy water from a vending machine, he grabbed her and forced her to take him to her apartment. Then he kicked in the door of where Lien and Stanciel were sleeping.

As they scrambled to their feet, Hardy shot them both in the head and left them dead on the apartment floor.

Two days later, he turned himself in to Tempe police.

In his closing arguments, prosecutor Jason Kalish alluded to Lien's emotional tailspin in the wake of the 1999 Columbine shootings in which two teen gunmen killed 12 students and a teacher and wounded 21 more.

According to Arapahoe County, Colo., sheriff's reports, Lien, then a 15-year-old freshman, was eating her lunch with a friend outside the school cafeteria on April 20, 1999, when they heard popping noises as if from firecrackers. They saw students fall to the ground and roll down a hill.

They told investigators they thought it was a production by the school TV station, until two kids sitting near them were shot and they saw the blood on their clothes.

Lien told investigators she looked the shooter in the eyes for at least 25 seconds, a skinny kid she did not recognize with long curly hair, wearing a long black coat, black jeans and baseball cap. He was later identified as Dylan Klebold, who killed himself after the attack along with his accomplice, Eric Harris.

Lien and her friend ran for their lives and hid, standing on a toilet in a stall in a girls bathroom. One of the gunmen shot into the room, shattering mirrors, though no one was hit. Lien listened as the shooter screamed "I hate you" to no one in particular, and when the shots seemed to be far enough away, the girls ran out of the building to safety.

Sometime around 2003, Lien moved to Phoenix with a boyfriend. She was pregnant when he dumped her.

And then she met Hardy.

CRAWFORD COUNTY (WTOL) - A nationwide search is underway for little Haylee Donathan.

The 4-year-old girl was last seen more than a week ago in Crestline, and investigators say she may be in danger.

They believe she's with her mother and Robbi Potter. Potter spent 3 years in prison for sexually assaulting two children.

One of the victims' mothers has a warning for Haylee's mom.

"I would tell her to get away. Run, as fast as you can. I mean, even if she doesn't do it for herself, she's gotta do it for her child," the mother said.

Haylee's father, his girlfriend and the girl's uncle are charged with helping Potter escape.

Investigators were checking possible leads near Phoenix, Ariz., after receiving tips that Haylee may be there. The Northern Ohio Violent Fugitive Task Force is handling the search.

"I'm a father myself and I can just imagine the fear in this girl, so we're not going to stop, we're going to keep going until we get her back safely," said Assistant Chief Deputy U.S. Marshal Drew Deserto.

Deserto said they are willing to speak with Potter and Haylee's mother to arrange a 'safe surrender.'

Talks are underway to get the case featured on America's Most Wanted.

Man Accused of Broadcasting Rape Video

PHOENIX (June 2) - Phoenix police say a man was arrested after he sexually assaulted his girlfriend while she was passed out and broadcast the attack live on the Internet.

A probable-cause statement says 20-year-old Jonathan Richard Hock was arrested Monday on two counts of sexual assault, one count of kidnapping and one count of taking a surreptitious photo.

The court document said Hock set up a computer Web camera and sexually assaulted a woman he knew in her bedroom as she was unconscious from drinking Feb. 26.

The woman, who had been drinking, was asleep four to five hours when Hock allegedly raped her, reported Phoenix television station KPHO.

According to The Arizona Republic, the victim learned what happened when friends sent her text messages about the video.

A request with the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office to interview Hock was not immediately returned. It was unclear whether he had a lawyer.

The site where the video had been posted provided a copy to police. Officials said Hock is popular on the site because of his sexual behavior, according to the newspaper, and there may be other victims.
