6 Wives, 4 DEAD! ‘BLACK WIDOWER’ HEADS TO TRIAL

A Nevada man is being tried again for the 2008 murders of his sixth wife and an alleged hitman after the state supreme court reversed his conviction three years ago.

Jury selection begins Tuesday in the retrial of Thomas Randolph for the deaths of Sharon Causse and Michael James Miller, the man prosecutors said Randolph hired to kill her, the Las Vegas Review Journal reported.

He was convicted and sentenced to death in 2017, but the Nevada Supreme Court unanimously reversed that decision, saying jurors should not have been told about the 1986 death of Randolph’s second wife in Utah.

Despite similarities between the killings of Becky Gault and Causse, Thomas Randolph was found not guilty of the 1986 murder. He was, however, convicted of witnesses tampering for trying to have a former friend killed. That friend had provided authorities with information that led to a murder charge after the death was initially ruled a suicide.

The high court said that because of Randolph’s acquittal, discussing that case in the trial over Causse and Miller’s deaths was “problematic.

Prosecutors have said they will not seek the death penalty this time around because of his age. Randolph, who was arrested for Causse’s murder in 2009, maintains his innocence.

Randolph says that he found his wife dead in their home and then saw a man wearing a ski mask in the entryway. He claimed he brushed up against the man — Miller — and shot him five times.

Prosecutors say Randolph was looking to gain more than $360,000 in insurance money from Causse’s death.

Two more of Randolph’s six wives were dead by the time he went to trial in 2017, all four “under mysterious circumstance,” Oxygen said. He was the subject of a three part NBC “Dateline” series in 2021.
