New News On Stenson
According to police, Dernell Stenson's murder was a random act, and not associated with alleged threats made by his ex-girlfriend.
Although early information led Chandler police to search the Indiana home and workplace of Jennifer Gaddis, nothing links her to Stenson's Nov. 5 death, according to Sgt. Mark Franzen, a Chandler police spokesman.
"It seems like this was a random act," Franzen said. According to Scottsdale police reports, Stenson filed a complaint against Gaddis two weeks before his death after receiving threatening messages on his cellphone.
It still seems like a little too much violence just to steal a car, although I suppose they wanted to make sure he was dead so they couldn't be identified. I guess that didn't work out the way they planned. If they had just tossed him from the car, they'd be facing a few years in prison. Now they may never see freedom again.

Good. It was a bit freaky to know that the ex-gf's house was three miles from where I live. The "small world" we live in can be disquieting.
