A man is accused of helping to fake his wife’ s death in the Grandview area of West Virginia.
A husband told 911 his wife fell from a scenic overlook in West Virginia — but it was all a lie, federal prosecutors said.
Rodney Wheeler, 48, is accused of misleading investigators as crews used rescue dogs, helicopters and climbing equipment to search for his wife on a rugged cliff side in May.
But Wheeler's claims were part of a plot to fake his wife's death so she could avoid sentencing in her federal health care fraud case, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of West Virginia.
