After they were shot Wendy Wood was able to call 911. Sadly, Wood, unable to cope with the loss of her husband, Robert Spohr, ultimately took her own life.
Their daughter, Adrienne Spohr, said that the overwhelming impact of this tragedy on her mother was responsible for the suicide. And “She couldn’t handle it, the loss. She missed my dad like crazy. It was like the killer killed her too. When we bring that person to justice, I certainly hope they are held accountable for both deaths. They are very much responsible for both.”
Sheriff Wayne Woo spoke after the arrests saying, “Today, justice was served. The apprehension of those responsible for the tragic events that unfolded in Homewood, North Lake Tahoe in 2021 stands as a testament to the unwavering dedication of our detectives, law enforcement partners, and the persistence of our pursuit of truth.”
