Police Arrest New Husband Of Slain Microsoft Executive’s Ex In Connection With His Death

Microsoft executive Jared Bridegan was killed in February 2022 after he dropped his twins off at their mother's home. Bridegan's toddler was in the car at the time of his death, and reportedly spent several minutes alone with her father's body before someone called for help.

Authorities have been piecing together the details of the killing ever since Bridegan was shot, and they've now made two arrests.

Police have arrested Mario Fernandez Saldana, the estranged husband of Bridegan's ex-wife, in connection with Bridegan's killing. Fernandez Saldana was charged with first-degree murder, conspiracy to commit murder, solicitation to commit a capital felony, and child abuse.

Police also arrested Henry Tenon, who was Fernandez Saldana's tenant and who did work for him from time to time. Tenon has pleaded guilt to second-degree murder charges.

Police revealed, "Our investigation has revealed a single link between Jared Bridegan and Henry Tenon: That is Mario Fernandez Saldana."
