Christian Taele — a 30-year-old former Southern Utah University running back — already pleaded guilty to murder, a first-degree felony, in the random killing of Ryan Hooley, of Spanish Fork, on June 26.
Taele admitted to beating Hooley, 49, before stabbing him to death. Hooley’s body was found near a dumpster behind a business in the early morning of July 8.
The next day, July 9, police found Tyler Belinti, 23, of Arizona, “partially hanging by the neck from a piece of gym equipment,” at an apartment complex at 2433 Adams Ave in Ogden.
