Prosecutors say Rudolph, who owned a Pittsburgh-area dental franchise, shot his wife of 34 years in the heart with a shotgun on her last morning in Zambia, and then put the gun in its soft case to make it look like she had accidentally shot herself while packing. The couple had been hunting game during their trip.

Cara-Wong.

Nice literary shoutout.

Props to the wife's brother for his comments in court.  For a macho guy like Larry, that would sting.

Her brother vowed on Monday to move her remains to a place that Larry Rudolph would never discover. Shortly before a judge sentenced Rudolph to life in prison in the 2016 death of Bianca Rudolph, Vincent Finizio also predicted Larry Rudolph would “die alone and unmourned” and that his future grandchildren will never know he existed.

“Even Judas would be afraid to be in your company,” Finizio said, referencing the home of Jesus’ traitor — the worst circle of hell imagined by Dante.

Did the crime scene look like this?

Prosecutors allege Rudolph built his wealth on fraud. They say he shot off his thumb during a previous visit to Zambia to collect millions in disability insurance money; they also allege he cheated his dental patients, creating the need for root canals by not doing fillings or drilling holes in their teeth while they were asleep.

Death penalty. Maybe drawing and quartering and putting his head on a spike at the Denver Airport arrival hall.

I mean, killing your wife to split insurance money with your mistress is objectively awful. Giving people tooth decay so they have to get root canals? 
 

This motherfucker should have all his teeth removed with a hammer and ice pick before the drawing and quartering.

What a shit head. Send him for a life time sentence in a Zambian jail.

“That was a pretty thing to do,” he said in a toneless voice. “She would have left you too."

"Why didn‟t you poison him? That's what they do in England."
