“They were good people; we’ve known them
for about 12 years now. They’re the kind of neighbors you leaned over the fence
and talked about your chickens with,” Allen Bishop told a CNN affiliate KSPR in
a recent interview. “They were just the old neighbors next door.”
Alice Uden formerly know as Alice Holtz,
74, had been married once before and it was short-lived from the fact that she
murdered her former husband in cold blood. During the time of 1974-1975 Alice was
married to Ronald Holtz for a few months before shooting her former sleeping
husband and dumping his body down a mineshaft. That August the mineshaft was
evacuated and investigators found Holtz’s body below ground. A witness from the
Laramie County authorities claims Alice confessed to the crime last week.
Gerald Uden murdered his former
wife, Virginia Uden, and her two kids Richard, 12, and Reagan, 10, under the
false pretense of a bird-hunting trip in 1980. Afterwards he hid the bodies
from discovery. Gerald confessed last week to a criminal affidavit in Fremont
County.
How
the couple met or whether or not the cases are connected has yet to be
determined. The two Udens were arrested early this week in Christian County,
Missouri. They are staying in jail as they await their trials in Wyoming where
the killings took place.
