‘Rifleman’s Journal’ Host Shot and Killed by Apparently Jealous Husband in Murder-Suicide
Gregory Rodriguez, the host of the Sportsman Channel show The Rifleman’s Journey, was killed Friday night, the victim of a murder-suicide by an apparently jealous husband, according to Montana police. Rodriguez, who is also an editor at Shooting Times Magazine and a contributing editor at Petersen’s Hunting, Guns & Ammo, was visiting a woman at the woman’s mother’s home in Whitefish, Montana when Wayne Bengston, the woman’s husband, showed up. It remains unclear what Rodriguez and the woman were doing at the time, but whatever it was, it sent the 41-year-old Bengston into a rage; shortly after entering the home, he shot and killed Rodriguez and severely beat his wife.
