Glover escaped to the bathroom and locked himself inside until authorities arrived, the State’s Attorney’s Office said.
Police arrived at the scene and found Robellard lying on the couch with a pillow over his shotgun wound.
On Oct. 18, the State’s Attorney’s Office announced that Robellard was sentenced to life plus 40 years in prison for first-degree murder and attempted first-degree murder. He was previously convicted on those charges in July after a three-day trial.
