Sheriff deputy indicted for shooting his wife to death over an argument about marijuana
A former Colorado sheriff’s deputy has been indicted in the shooting death of his wife at a New Years party in 2012 following an argument over his belief she was going to smoke marijuana, reports 7 News Denver.
Thomas Fallis, 34, was indicted by a grand jury in Weld County on two charges of murder in the death of his wife Ashley.
Fallis was arrested Tuesday morning in Bloomington, Indiana where he moved with couples’ three children after the death of his wife.
According to court documents, Fallis shot and killed his wife at the party at their home when he became angry with her after overhearing her say she was going outside to “have a smoke,” and believing she was going to smoke marijuana.
Following another argument with a guest, Fallis reportedly stormed into the master bedroom, yelling and slamming the door as guests, including his wife’s parents, left the home.
According to the indictment, the couple reportedly kept arguing until Fallis grabbed a 9mm handgun and, during a struggle, “held the gun to the right side of Ashley’s head and pulled the trigger.”
“While still in contact with Ashley, he lowered Ashley to the floor, began holding her head, and called 911 to report that Ashley shot her self in the head,” the indictment states. Fallis died approximately three hours later.

Geez....Do they not do psychological evaluations on cops anymore? They let psychos like this have a badge and a gun and then cover up their crimes?
The wife's family claims their daughter was killed by Fallis and that the police were covering it up. Neighbors said the couple fought frequently. And certain witness accounts were missing or incorrectly recorded in the original police reports.
