Untreated mental illness. We are going to have to do better as a country. :(
A Utah woman pleaded guilty to encouraging her husband to shoot their neighbor whom she claimed had "telepathically raped" her, authorities said.
Meloney Selleneit, 55, this week pleaded guilty, but mentally ill, to reduced charges of criminal solicitation and possession of a dangerous weapon for the 2011 shooting of Tony Pierce, the couple's neighbor in Centerville, Utah.
Her husband, Michael Selleneit, 55, was found guilty and mentally ill for his role in the October 2011 shooting.
Michael Selleneit is accused of firing two bullets into the back of Pierce's neck while the man was on a ladder doing yard work outside his trailer home, according to Paul Child, assistant chief for the Centerville Police. Pierce survived the shooting.
The Selleneits were known to police and for years had complained to authorities about two neighbors "telepathically raping" Meloney, Child said. He said there was no evidence of any physical contact between Pierce and Meloney Selleneit.
