Wife Pushes Husband Off Cliff At Glacier Park in Montana: Admits It Two Months After Lying To Authorities, Faces Second-Degree Murder Charges

Wife pushes husband off cliff in Glacier Park murder just eight days after the couple was married as Jordan Graham confessed to killing Cody Johnson two months after his body was found.

The body of the husband was found in the area of the park that is too steep and rugged that a helicopter had to be used in the rescue months after his wife pushes him off the Glacier Park cliff.

Graham, 22, appeared Monday in federal court in Missoula on a second-degree murder charge in Johnson's July 7 death.

On the night Johnson was pushed off a cliff by the husband's wife in Glacier Park, Graham told a friend that she meant to talk with Johnson about "having second thoughts about having been married," according to an FBI affidavit filed with the criminal complaint.

Just before 9 p.m., she texted the friend that she was about to talk to him.

"But dead serious if u don't hear from me at all again tonight, something happened," Graham wrote, according to the affidavit.

On July 9, Graham was questioned as he was reported missing the day prior because he failed to show up at work. Graham said that her husband went out of town with a friend for a drive.

Graham then told a park ranger two days later in Glacier that she had found the body below the popular Loop area, the affidavit said.

"It was a place he wanted to see before he died," she said, according to the affidavit. "He would come up here with friends to drive fast when his friends were visiting from out of town."

Five days later, she admitted she had lied. After an argument with her husband, they decided to take a trip to the Loop Trail. Graham said they were arguing and as she went to walk away, he husband grabbed her arm. Then, "due to her anger, she pushed Johnson with both hands in the back, and as a result, he fell face first off the cliff," the affidavit said.
