<p>A man with a trail of dead and abused wives has been convicted of killing his sixth wife and the hitman he hired to murder her.</p>
<p>Thomas Randolph, 68, was found guilty on August 24 for the 2008 killings of Sharon Causse Randolph and Michael Miller, whom Randolph hired to murder Causse, the Las Vegas Review-Journal <a href="https://www.reviewjournal.com/crime/courts/a-twisted-nightmare-man-found-guilty-of-killing-wife-hit-man-in-second-trial-2893603/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>. This was the second time Randolph had been convicted of the murders, but his conviction was overturned in 2021 by a court that argued jurors in that case should not have heard about his alleged prior bad acts.</p>
<p>“I’m so relieved, it’s unbelievable,” said Colleen Beyer, Causse’s daughter. “It’s been 15 years, and it’s been a twisted nightmare.”</p>
<p>A jury deliberated for just four hours before returning a guilty verdict.</p>
<p>Randolph had been convicted of the two murders in 2017 and sentenced to death but appealed the conviction to the Nevada Supreme Court. In 2021, that court ruled that including Randolph’s previous murder charges for his second wife’s death in Utah in 1986 – charges for which he was acquitted – was improper and demanded he receive a new trial.</p>
<p>Randolph has been married six times, and four of his wives are dead, gaining him the nickname the “Black Widower.” His two surviving wives testified at his first trial in 2017 that he abused them and that they thought he would kill them.</p>
<p>Randolph married his first wife, Kathryn Thomas, in 1975. She testified during his first trial that he was controlling, manipulative, and psychologically abusive, <a href="https://lawandcrime.com/crime/6-wives-4-are-dead-black-widower-thomas-randolph-faces-retrial-for-6th-wifes-murder/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according to Law &amp; Crime</a>. She also said that Randolph threw a bowl of oatmeal at the wall because there hadn’t been sugar on it.</p>
<p>On the day their divorce was finalized in 1983, Randolph married Becky Gault. Three years later, Gault was found dead in their home with a bullet wound to the head. She had been tucked into the couple’s waterbed. Her death was initially ruled a suicide and Randolph was able to collect on a $500,000 life insurance policy. Randolph was later charged with her murder after investigators learned that he had written songs about killing Gault and hired an undercover cop to murder her.</p>
<p>He pleaded guilty to witness tampering but was found not guilty of murdering Gault.</p>
<p>His third wife, Gayna Allmon, also testified at his 2017 murder trial, saying she believed he had tried to kill her. Allmon said Randolph was cleaning his gun and shot it in her direction, leaving a bullet hole in the wall. Randolph claimed it was an accident, but Allmon believed he was trying to kill her.</p>

<p>Randolph’s fourth wife, Francis Randolph, died in 2004 after heart surgery, however, the circumstances surrounding her death are suspect. Randolph allegedly blocked Francis’ daughter from seeing her at the hospital, and that daughter testified that Randolph had Francis cremated within 24 hours of her death, Law &amp; Crime reported. At his first trial in 2017, a man named Glen Morrison testified that Randolph had asked him to kill Francis and make it look like a burglary.</p>
<p>Leona Stapleton, Randolph’s fifth wife, reportedly died of cancer.</p>
<p>When Causse, his sixth wife, died, Randolph told investigators that she had died during a home invasion and that he had killed the intruder. Randolph collected $400,000 in life insurance money after Causse was murdered. After some investigation, police determined that Randolph had hired the intruder, Miller, to murder Causse.</p>
<p>None of the information from Gault or Francis’ deaths was allowed in Randolph’s new trial, but he was still found guilty.</p>
<p>He is scheduled to be sentenced on October 12.</p>
