Pennsylvania Trooper Stands Trial in Murder of Dentist

A Pennsylvania state trooper, Kevin Foley, (left) has been charged in the murder of dentist Dr. John Yelenic, the estranged husband of his girlfriend, Michele Yelenic (right). Prosecutors allege that Foley not only prayed for Yelenic’s death but tried to convince another trooper to help kill him.

Yelenic, 39, was found dead with his throat cut the day before he was to sign his final divorce papers.

Foley allegedly made up false statements that Yelenic molested his son — allegations made allegedly with the agreement of Michele Yelenic.

For a police officer, prosecutors allege that Foley was not very careful by linking him to Foley by DNA evidence and bloody footprints.

Foley, 43, is charged with criminal homicide and could face life in prison without parole.
