Timothy Stemple

Timothy Stemple, right, enlisted his girlfriend's 16-year-old cousin to help him kill his wife
of 11 years Trisha, left.

On the left is the autopsy sketch for Richard Yost, who was killed in another, unrelated murder. Yost was
in fact hit in the back of the head 30 times. The fatal beating was recorded on video. The damage
to Yost's head is what can be expected from such a beating.

On the right is the autopsy sketch for Trisha Stemple. In the Stemple case, the State's star witness
(and the only alleged eye-witness) testified that he and Shaun Stemple had struck Trisha Stemple
 in the back of her head more than 30 times, perhaps as many as 40 times.

Terry Hunt

Stemple concocted a plan to terminate the life of his wife, Trisha Stemple, and to collect her life
insurance proceeds. Stemple was having an extra-marital affair with Dani Wood. Dani Wood
had a sixteen year old cousin, Terry Hunt. According to Hunt, Stemple offered him $25,000
to $50,000 to help kill Trisha (if they collected the insurance money).
