Allegations Against Jennifer Gledhill

  • 💡 Jennifer Gledhill is accused of murdering her husband, Matthew Johnson, in his sleep after a "whiskey-fueled" night where she revealed an affair.
  • 🧠 She claims amnesia due to drunkenness, a defense described as "malingering" by an expert, to explain her lack of memory regarding the night.
  • 📌 A no-contact order prevents Gledhill from seeing her children, who are considered potential witnesses in the case.

Crime Scene Evidence
