Fmr. deputy Tom Fallis arrested on murder charge nearly three years after shooting death of wife
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Former Weld County sheriff’s deputy Tom Fallis was arrested on Tuesday on a charge that he allegedly murdered his wife on New Year’s Day 2012.
Ashley Fallis, 28, died of a gunshot wound in the early morning hours of New Year’s Day. The Evans Police Department ruled her death a suicide within days. After her death, Tom Fallis moved, along with the couple’s three children, to Indiana.
However, family members suspected Ashley Fallis’ death was not an accident. They believed she was murdered.
In April of this year, after an extensive two-year investigation, FOX31 Denver reporter Justin Joseph presented new evidence to Evans Police Chief Rick Brandt, prompting him to reopen the death investigation and turn it over to an independent police agency.
