In September 2024, Vermilion police responded to Krupienski’s home on reports of a suicide.
When they got there, his wife, Marie, was found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
WOIO reported that Marie allegedly voiced suicidal thoughts while under the influence of alcohol. When she did that, her husband gave her a loaded gun.
