Utah Man Pleads Guilty to Murdering Wife

Utah Man Pleads Guilty to First-Degree Murder of Wife After She Discovered His Lies

SALT LAKE CITY Apr 15, 2005 — A husband pleaded guilty Friday to killing his wife last year, shooting her in the head as she slept after she discovered he had been lying about his career plans and their future together.

Prosecutors say Mark Hacking then threw 27-year-old Lori Hacking‘s body in a trash bin. Volunteers scouring a landfill found her decomposed remains about three months later.

Prosecutors said the sentencing range will be from six years to life.

Hacking, a hospital orderly, pleaded guilty to first-degree murder. He also was charged with obstructing justice by disposing of the body, the gun and a bloody mattress, but those charges were dropped as part of Friday’s deal.

Sentencing was scheduled for June 6.
