In Fairfax County, you can admit you did it, everyone can agree you did it, and the court can still declare you “not guilty.”
Nearly four years ago, Gret and Heather Glyer put their two children to bed and went to sleep. Hours later, Heather and the kids woke up in a living nightmare.
Gret was executed in their bed.
He was shot ten times, including four times in the head and twice in the neck. The killer had fled into the night.
Days later, police made an arrest: Josh Danehower.
Danehower was no stranger. About a decade earlier, he had pursued Heather romantically, according to police documents. Later, Danehower and the Glyers attended the same church.
Danehower admitted to murdering Gret after his arrest.
