Timothy Bliefnick, a former ‘Family Feud’ contestant who joked on the game show that he regretted his marriage has been convicted of murdering his estranged wife.
On May 31, a jury in Adams County, Ill. found Timothy Bliefnick, 40, guilty of fatally shooting Rebecca Bliefnick, with whom he shared three sons, EsB earlier reported.
Timothy has joked on the show that his marriage with wife is a joke three years before the crime.
Bliefnick was found dead inside her home back in February and her estranged husband was charged with breaking into her home and shooting her multiple times.
The former couple was living apart at the time, and in the process of divorcing.
The most sinister testimony came when Becky’s sister took the stand, and said Becky worried [Timothy] might harm her, as they fought over custody of their 3 kids.
She said Becky texted her in 2021, saying ‘If something ever happens to me, make sure the No. 1 person of interest is Tim.’
Timothy was convicted on Wednesday, May 31, of first-degree murder and home invasion following a nearly week-long trial in Illinois.
His sentencing is set for August where he faces life in prison.
