@yass.unitedstates: Lee Mongerson Gilley, 39, is accused of killing his pregnant wife, Christa Bauer Gilley, in Houston in 2024. Authorities say she was nine weeks pregnant when she died, with a medical examiner ruling the death a homicide due to strangulation. Gilley had been out on bond with an ankle monitor but allegedly cut it off and fled the U.S. just before his trial. He traveled through Canada to Italy, where he was taken into custody after claiming asylum, saying he fears wrongful prosecution and the death penalty. Prosecutors argue his escape suggests guilt, while efforts are now underway to return him to the U.S. to face trial. #houston #husband #killed #wife #asylum
