The Enforcer: the murder of Kelley Stage Clayton [True Crime]

Thomas Clayton played forward for the Elmira Jackals for four seasons in the early 2000s.
While an ‘enforcer’ on the ice, he was a husband and father at home. He married the beautiful cocktail waitress, Kelley, and the couple had two children; Charlie and Cullen.

In September 2015, Tom was retired from his professional hockey career and had become successful in a franchise business doing fire and water restoration work in and around New York State. One night after his regular poker game, Tom arrived home after midnight to find the house in disarray, his children frightened and his wife, Kelley, unresponsive in the kitchen. It was a ‘robber’, Charlie said.

Responders to the scene immediately suspected Tom. His own daughter suggested that might be the case. Through body cam footage, interview audio and crime scene photos, JTL tracks the course of the investigation, which takes a few odd turns before piecing together all the parts of this puzzle.
