Robert Joseph Hibbard wanted so much to talk with the FBI about his ex-wife’s death that he took a hostage at the bureau’s Salt Lake City office and demanded to talk to investigators in September 2012.
The 43-year-old pleaded guilty but mentally ill Monday to a kidnapping charge, the Salt Lake Tribune reports.
Hibbard insisted to investigators that his ex-wife was murdered by her new husband.
His wife, Rashell Langford, died after shooting herself in a suicide pact from which her husband withdrew. The husband was sentenced to 180 days in jail.
Hibbard believed the sentence wasn’t long enough because the new husband wasn’t charged with murder.
