The Messages Shanna Gardner Sent Before Bridegan Was Killed

The Messages Shanna Gardner Sent Before Bridegan Was Killed

Fernandez's conviction validated the prosecution's theory that a web of circumstantial evidence can prove a murder-for-hire without direct proof of the ask. Gardner's trial tests whether that same theory holds when the defendant is one more step removed from the gunman — but left a trail of her own words behind.

Gardner's texts to Kim Jensen expressed violent desire regarding Bridegan in language prosecutors will read to the jury. Jensen texted a contact in July 2016 about finding Gardner someone who "performs permanent disappearing acts." Johns testified at a pretrial hearing that multiple people came forward saying Gardner had solicited them. A tattoo shop employee told investigators Gardner said she needed someone to "shut Jared up."

The marital privilege that blocked Jensen from testifying in Fernandez's trial flips in Gardner's case. Gardner's statements to Jensen aren't spousal communications — they're friend-to-friend conversations. The prosecution's most important witness may be fully admissible this time. Gardner's attorney Jose Baez has argued the texts are mischaracterized humor and accused the prosecution of withholding evidence. The jury pool has been expanded to 500 prospective jurors.
