GUILTY
n September 2019, a jury in Dubuque County found Todd Mullis guilty of murdering his wife. Sentencing is scheduled for March, but the conviction carries a mandatory sentence of life in prison without parole. ‘We’re pleased with the jury’s verdict and thank the jurors for their service,’ Lynn Hicks, spokesperson for the Iowa Department of Justice said of the result. Mullis’ lawyer, Gerald Feuerhelm described the case as an Iowa
‘murder mystery novel’, and said that Mullis was in ‘disbelief’ over the conviction. ‘Of course, we’re disappointed,’ Feuerhelm added, saying that he plans to file post-trial motions to challenge the jury’s decision.
