An Illinois man who once made an eerie joke about his marriage on Family Feud has been sentenced to spend the rest of his life behind bars for the brutal murder of his estranged wife.
Earlier this year, 39-year-old Timothy Bliefnick was convicted of first-degree murder and home invasion in the fatal shooting of his 41-year-old wife Becky Bliefnick. The couple, who shared three children, were in the final stages of a contentious divorce when Bleifnick pried open his wife’s second-storey window with a crowbar and shot her dead on 23 February.
