DR MARTIN MACNEILL TRIES TO COMMIT SUICIDE IN JAIL

Utah: The doctor who was last month convicted of murdering his wife, Michele, in 2007 has tried to commit suicide in jail. According to the MailOnline, Martin MacNeill was discovered by officers during a routine check at Utah County Jail at 5pm on Thursday December 5.
Sgt. Spencer Cannon, of the Utah County Sheriff's Office told KSL that officers intervened and MacNeill was transported to Utah Valley Regional Medical Center, where he remained over night. Spencer said that MacNeill was conscious but uncooperative with officers. He is expected to be returned to the jail Friday.
Sgt Cannon did not say what MacNeill had used in the suicide attempt, or what condition he was found in by deputies. However, KSL has reported that the doctor used a razor.

MacNeill is currently awaiting sentencing for the murder of his wife. He is due in court on January 7, 2014.
