Man Kills a Second Wife 22 Years Later

An Illinois man has killed his second wife after serving 13 years for killing his first, the Chicago Tribune reports. Richard Wiley, who gunned down Kathryn Wiley-Motes with a Civil War replica rifle this weekend, then murdered his 17-year-old stepson and turned the rifle on himself. Wiley-Motes married Wiley months after he got out of prison 9 years ago, dismissing concerns from the minister who married them.

"I have played out every scenario that I can possibly think of, and I think I can deal with it," Motes, a student pastor, had told the reverend before the wedding. Wiley-Motes was a secretary at a church Wiley attended since childhood. "Did she think she could help him?" the minister asked. "When you have that kind of pastoral spirit, let's face it, we're caregivers, we're helpers."
