Husband Of Missing MÖTLEY CRÜE Fan Found Guilty Of Second-Degree Murder

October 23, 2010

According to The Baltimore Sun, the husband of a Baltimore County woman who has been missing since March 2005 when she failed to meet friends for a MÖTLEY CRÜE concert has been found guilty of second-degree murder.

Dennis Tetso was convicted of killing his wife, Tracey, who was last seen going to a concert in Washington, D.C., in March 2005. Her body was never found.

The key piece of evidence that turned the cold case hot was a remote key fob to the victim's Trans Am, prosecutors said. Testimony and evidence showed that there was only one key fob and that Tetso gave it to police. Prosecutors said they believe he was the one who was captured on surveillance video using it when the car was abandoned.

"Seeing the lights of the brakes of that car flash on and off, and knowing the person who walked away from that car had that fob in their hand — that really sealed it for me and brought a lot of the other pieces of the puzzle together," said Baltimore County state's attorney Scott Shellenberger.

Dennis Tetso is scheduled to be sentenced November 23.

MÖTLEY CRÜE in April 2005 announced that they would match the $10,000 reward fund being offered for information on the whereabouts of Tracey Tetso. The reward was being offered by the Victims' Rights Foundation of Gaithersburg, Metro Crime Stoppers and Aggregate Industries, which employed Tracey Tetso as a dispatcher.
