Husband found guilty of murder in ‘letter from grave’ case


Murder will out...


A jury in Wisconsin found Mark Jensen guilty of first-degree murder Thursday in the 1998 poisoning death of his wife after a trial that included what prosecutors said was a haunting letter from the grave…

Jensen sat stonefaced at the defense table as the jury was polled. He showed little emotion during the six-week trial…

The jury’s verdict came nearly a decade after Julie Jensen was found dead in her bed. The cause of death: Poisoning by ethylene glycol, the main ingredient in antifreeze…

Julie Jensen, the victim, had given a neighbor a letter pointing an accusing finger at her husband should anything happen to her.

Do you think justice was served?
