began to alter her account of how Greg died Michelle stated that Greg had taken his life and she covered up the evidence in order to protect their four-year-old daughter from learning that her father had taken his own life Michelle reasoned that it would be less traumatic for the child to believe that an intruder was responsible upon discovering Greg's lifeless body Michelle told the detective she made a decision to conceal the fact that Greg took his life and staged it as a robbery gone wrong to perpetuate this ruse she utilized Clorox wipes to clean every corner
of the house including the gun that was used to take Greg's life she then intentionally Poss IED the weapon outside the patio door along with the wrench that she had used to hit herself in the face creating a false impression that an intruder had harmed her since Michelle admitted to staging the crime scene to look like a robbery gone wrong it led to her being charged with evidence tampering and released on bail upon being released from custody she met with Greg's grieving family and told them the same story she had shared with the police Michelle
claimed that GRE had exhibited signs of depression prior to the incident Michelle stated that one day she walked into the garage and discovered both of their mercedes-benzes were warm indicating that someone had been operating them within the garage this discovery raised suspicions for Michelle and she wondered if Greg may have been contemplating taking his own life that day when Michelle spoke to her sister after Greg's death she admitted she cleaned Greg's hands and weapon while staying aing the crime scene Greg's death became Front Page News captivating the attention of the residents of Keller Texas this
story which unfolded in a wealthy gated community had all the elements of a captivating real life soap opera The shocking circumstances surrounding his death had everyone glued to their screens unable to get enough details in the weeks following Greg's Death Michelle his wife did not take part in his funeral arrangements and even did not attend the service Michelle's absence left Greg's family feeling hurt and confused as they expected Michelle to be more involved in honoring her husband's memory moreover Michelle decided to sell the frozen yogurt shop blueberries which Greg had purchased for her only months
before his death when Greg bought the shop he paid $110,000 for it however Michelle decided to sell it for a mere 4 $5,000 furthermore Michelle sold the frozen yogurt shop and Greg's business despite Greg having an excellent client base in netting $500,000 a year after Greg's Death Michelle sold the company for only $8,000 a month Greg's family believed Michelle was actively trying to dispose of Greg's possessions and Legacy as quickly as possible her behavior made them question her involvement in his death Greg's relatives were not the only ones who had doubts about Michelle's strange Behavior
the detectives who were investigating Greg's shooting also found themselves questioning Michelle's account of staging the crime scene to hide the fact that Greg had taken his own life they believed the story to be absurd and suspected that Michelle was the actual shooter their suspicions were fueled by the overwhelming evidence pointing toward Michelle as the killer the detectives were faced with the task of determining what weapon was used to kill Greg in order to identify and Trace the fired bullets or cartridge cases back to a firearm they sought the expertise of a forensic firearm tool Mark
examiner this examiner is trained to analyze and compare marks left on fired bullets or cartridge cases to determine their origin and connection to a specific firearm upon examination it was revealed that Greg owned a 45 caliber gun which was recovered from the scene this particular firearm was a high-end pistol that Greg typically kept on his nightstand the forensic firearm tool Mark examiner conducted a detailed analysis and was able to determine that this gun was the weapon used to kill Greg Additionally the examination revealed the presence of bullet cases in the bedding and the bullet recovered
from the autopsy was found to be a match to Greg's gun during Greg's autopsy the medical examiner performed a thorough examination to determine the circumstances surrounding his death one notable finding was that the shot fired into Greg's head went directly through him rather than up or down and this raised the questions for the medical examiner as it seemed unusual for the bullet to have traveled that way if Greg had shot himself additionally the medical examiner observed stipulating marks on the right side of Greg's face these marks which resembled small bruises were caused by the forceful
impact of gunpowder upon the skin the stipulation marks indicated that the gunpowder traveled some distance indicating that this was not a contact wound another significant observation made by the medical examiner was the distance of the firearm from Greg when it was fired the examiner estimated that the gun was 6 to 24 in away from Greg's head this distance further contradicted the idea that Greg had taken his life furthermore the examination of the crime scene provided additional evidence contradicting the theory of Greg taking his life the shell casing recovered from the bedding was a crucial piece
of evidence this position of the casing was found in an area that would not have been easily reachable if it had been ejected from the firearm in the position Greg was in if if he had shot himself in January 2012 3 months after Greg's Death Michelle his wife was arrested and charged with his murder however the detectives in the case faced a huddle the Keller Police Department in experienced at murder scenes had not done a great job in their initial investigation when Greg's Body was transported from the crime scene to the medical examiner's office he
was wrapped in his bed sheets which could potentially lead to cross-examination the case faced numerous issues and the state offered Michelle a plea deal rather than murder Michelle could plead to tampering with evidence in a Texas charge called deadly conduct which means wielding a weapon IR responsibly Michelle accepted the deal and faced a sentence of 2 to 20 years however Michelle knew that if she went to trial she could end up imprisoned for 50 to 100 years she want to get out to be with her daughter as soon as possible with the plea deal Michelle
would be released when her daughter turned 18 Michelle had been released on bail following her arrest for allegedly murdering her husband after being released she began dating Jean Wallace a personal trainer who was 12 years younger than her Jean was Lee's Michelle's son's best friend which added an extra layer of complexity to the situation when Lee discovered his mother and best friend were together he was angry and resentful Lee's anger stemmed from feeling betrayed by his best friend and mother despite the circumstances Michelle and Jean decided to pursue their relationship further they opened a gym
together which was a turning point for Michelle she began referring to herself as Shelly and adopted a new persona during one of Michelle's Court hearings she informed the judge that she was pregnant with twins and that it was a high-risk pregnancy the judge and the prosecution were skeptical of Michelle's claim but they decided to delay her sentencing hearing until after the birth of the babies to challenge the doubts Michelle produced sonogram pictures in court however those familiar with Michelle pointed out that faking pregnancies was one of her well-known traits additionally there had been rumors that
she had faked miscarriages in the past in order to see SE attention and Garner sympathy these claims cast a Shadow of Doubt on her pregnancy's authenticity Michelle was interviewed by a reporter with 48 Hours as she was awaiting sentencing for her plea deal on charges of deadly conduct related to her husband's death however rather than maintaining her initial story that Greg took his own life Michelle stunned everyone by reverting to her original claim that a mysterious dark clad Intruder killed Greg this Sudden Change in narrative caught the attention of the judge who promptly summoned Michelle
to court and admonished her for denying what she had pleaded guilty to the judge was particularly displeased by Michelle's attempt to shift blame away from herself as a result of Michelle's denial the judge revoked her plea deal leaving her at risk of receiving a life sentence rather than serving a few years in jail Michelle went on trial for murder ing her husband in September 2014 3 years after Greg died during her trial there was no sign Michelle was pregnant at all let alone with twins furthermore investigators found no doctor or hospital records that indicated Michelle
was pregnant despite her claims it was clear to everyone Michelle lied about being pregnant in an attempt to get her trial delayed and even possibly dismissed as Michelle's trial began the prosecutors presented their case alleging that she was responsible for shooting and killing Greg the prosecution claimed that the primary motive behind Michelle's actions was Financial they alleged that despite Greg's high-income career Michelle's excessive spending habits had left the couple unable to afford the down payment on the house they were planning to purchase according to the prosecution Michelle's uncontrol controllable spending had left the couple with
a mere $30,000 in their bank accounts Michelle was allegedly driven to commit the murder as a means to secure the financial resources they needed to fulfill their dream of owning a home the prosecutors in the case alleged that a fight ensued when Greg discovered that there was no money left in their account during this altercation Michelle realized that with Greg gone he was worth more to her than aivee due to his $850,000 life insurance policy as a result she decided to take action and eliminate him during the trial the state called the medical examiner a
witness with nearly 40 Years of professional experience the medical examiner testified that he had never came across an instance where a person committed took their life with a gun positioned from the distance in which Gregs was additionally Greg's mother took the witness stand and recounted her memories of her son she mentioned that Greg was frequently tired from work but despite this he was content with his life and thoroughly enjoyed spending time with his daughter according to his mother Greg would often gush about the house he and Michelle were planning on buying the state's bombshell witness
was Andrew Michelle's younger son while on the witness stand Andrew shared a shocking Revelation according to Andrew one month after Greg passed away Michelle approached him and asked him to reach out to some friends she asked them to purchase a large sweater and go out to the woods and fire a pistol this plan was to leave behind a gunpowder residue on the shirt Michelle then instructed the friends to break into Greg's ex-wife Cathy's car and leave the sweater inside she wanted them to report the incident to the police using a pay phone stating that the
shirt had been stolen the police would search the car and find the sweater which would lead them to believe that Cathy was involved in Greg's murder initially Greg dismissed Michelle's claims thinking that she was not being serious however as time went on Michelle began asking Andrew if he thought his brother Lee might have murdered Greg Andrew was upset by this request as he believed that his mother was trying to frame her son for Greg's death in their closing arguments the prosecution made a strong statement regarding Michelle's character to the jury they described her as a
cold-blooded killer and urged them to find her guilty this statement left a lasting impression on the jury who deliberated for 7 hours before reaching a verdict the jury found Michelle guilty and sentenced her to 60 years in prison she will be eligible for parole after serving 30 years when she is 74 while this news brought relief to some others remain skeptical as they believe that Michelle's guilt extends beyond the murder of her husband Greg Michelle's former sister-in-law Michelle Fletcher holds the belief that Michelle is also responsible for another death Brinn Fletcher Greg's brother-in-law and best
friend was killed 10 months before Greg was murdered on the day Brinn died he had embarked on a business trip for Greg's company Brinn worked as a truck driver and was driving a pickup truck according to his wife Michelle Fletcher Bren followed directions given to him by Michelle Williams Greg's wife approximately 45 minutes into brinn's drive he pulled over to the side of highway 34 later police officers responded to a call regarding an abandoned truck on highway 34 upon further investigation they discovered the body of Brinn inside the vehicle Brinn had been shot once in
the head following the autopsy conducted by the medical examiner it was established that brinn's manner of death was ruled as suicide however Michelle Fletcher brinn's wife had a different opinion she believes that Michelle Williams is somehow responsible for brin's demise Michelle Fletcher believed that Michelle killed Brin in order to cover up her lies as Brin may have been on to her outof control Behavior despite Michelle Fletcher's suspicions no charges have ever been brought upon Michelle for brinn's death and the police have indicated that they have no plans to reopen the investigation
