Shele's family hugged and kissed one another in celebration. A shaken Shele frantically texted Karstaedt, saying '**** hit fan' and that Covlin was moving his stuff back into her apartment. After finding his wife, he rolled her out of the tub, called 911 and began CPR, according to what Covlin told cops at the scene. Eventually, Shele's family relented and the police got an order of exhumation so that Shele's body could be examined. In December 2013, Covlin told Oles he planned on kidnapping Anna, then 13, and marrying her off in Mexico so she could be declared an adult and Covlin could access her money.
