Trial opens for man accused of planning tire-in-road killing
Tenon pleaded guilty to second-degree murder with a weapon in March 2023 under a deal requiring him to testify against Fernandez Saldana and Gardner
Assistant State Attorney Christina Simak Stifler said in opening statements, "The killer was a stranger to Jared Bridegan. The murder was personal"
Defense attorney James Hill told the jury that Fernandez Saldana had no motive or desire to get rid of Bridegan
“And Shanna Gardner’s indictment acknowledges her central and key role in the cold, calculated and premeditated murder of Jared Bridegan.”
