Groom Murdered in Cliff Fall Urged Not To Marry Wife

Read Time:1 Minute, 6 Second

Folks close to Jordan Linn Graham, the newlywed accused of pushing her husband of eight days off a cliff and to his death in July, says Graham was vocal about not really wanting to get married, and friends of the groom now say they were vocal as well.

A member of Cody Lee Johnson’s wedding party says he warned Johnson not to marry Graham, as did others. Cameron Fredrickson says the two-year relationship “didn’t seem like a happy, loving” one, and describes Graham as unfriendly; he notes she didn’t look at her husband-to-be as she said her vows, reports the Missoulian.

Fredrickson, however, acknowledges that Johnson never expressed any misgivings to him. Graham, for her part, will find out where she will remain pending trial by noon today. At an appearance in US District Court in Missoula yesterday, attorneys for the 22-year-old asked that she be allowed to stay with her mother and stepfather; the prosecution wants her behind bars.

Other revelations from court: FBI Special Agent Steven Liss testified that Graham told her maid of honor, via emails sent before Johnson’s death, that she didn’t want to wake up, reports the Missoulian, and CNN reports that prosecutors asserted that a fake email account created soon after Johnson’s death was part of an attempted cover-up.

Wait a minute! This sounds an awful lot like a made-for-television movie from the late 70’s. Groom dies suddenly and bride is the number one suspect with a mega-buck life insurance policy having been signed days before they got married.

Turns out groom faked his death with the insurance money going to an “unknown friend” after the bride was sent to jail. A further twist cleared the bride who then promptly left the country to rejoin her very tan husband.

I’d check the couple’s TiVo just to cover all the bases.

As the Crypt-Keeper from “Tales from the Crypt” might have said,”This tale could have been a real cliff hanger; but he simply fell for her in a big way.”

This is one time he should have listened to his friends.
