Whereabouts of those responsible for Christine Belford's murder

Christine Belford's former husband, David Matusiewicz

David Matusiewicz is now serving a life sentence in a federal prison, convicted of conspiracy and cyberstalking that killed his ex-wife, Christine Belford. The court defined the stalking and shooting as "a crime of malice," as per a report by Philadelphia-based media organization WHYY, dated February 19, 2016.

Such a plan of a well-coordinated harassment campaign continued over several years by David as well as falsely defaming character and parental capability. His participation in the crime that took the life of Christine led to a life imprisonment by a federal judge in February 2016.

According to the United States Attorney's Office press release on July 10, 2025, David is reported to display no emotions in court during sentencing, and no comments have been seen from him after the sentence was pronounced.

Thomas Matusiewicz

Thomas Matusiewicz, aged 68 at the time of the shooting, was the one who had fired the bullets to kill the mother, Christine Belford, and her friend Laura "Beth" Mulford. After shooting them in the courthouse lobby, Thomas engaged police in a shootout before killing himself.

His act was premeditated since he traveled from Texas to Delaware with weapons and ammunition for this purpose. Thomas's death ended his involvement in the case immediately after the tragic incident, leaving behind a legacy of violence that would haunt his family and community.
