Is the pic. Next to inmate info. The man in prison for murdering his wife? Didnt know if it was possibly wrong photo? That photo looks like heavy set grey headed woman. Just saw this story on My Dirty Little Secrets on ID Discovery & couldnt believe a monster who claimed to be a man of god was addicted to sex phone calls. Its a shame this poor woman lost her life to a lowlife freak.
Yup, that is him!! I had the same reaction!
Yes he has aged quite a bit since his conviction. I just finished a book about this story written by Patty Jo’s niece – Connie Smithson. Good book – sad story. – my condolences to her family.
God promises that what is done in the dark will be brought into the light. Shows what an absolute fool he was. I think he used the pulpit to hide behind. Unfortunately I have encountered those kind down through the years in some churches I have attended.
