Husband Pleads Guilty in Four-Story Death of Wife
Stanley Reimer, 52, pleaded guilty to second degree murder in Jackson County Circuit Court for killing his seriously ill wife Criste Reimer by throwing her from a Kansas City apartment balcony in August 2007. He received life in prison with eligibility for parole after about 25 years. Prosecutors said financial strain and medical costs drove the act. Criste, 47, had neurological issues, weighed 75 pounds, and lacked health insurance. Her body was found near the Country Club Plaza. Reimer initially claimed she didn’t jump and later admitted throwing her to end her care costs. The family was informed of the plea, and it satisfied them.
