Michael Paul Pies, 36, of Blaine, Minnesota, was found shot to death in a motel room in Ashland, Wisconsin. Relatives asked police to check on him and officers entered a room that had been checked out in his name on November 2, 2011. Authorities reported an odor and discovered his body with a gunshot wound to the head.

Investigators focused on his girlfriend, 38-year-old Angelina Mae O’Mara. Her account shifted during questioning: she first blamed members of the Hell’s Angels, then said a gun discharged accidentally during a struggle, and later admitted she had pointed a gun at Pies and pulled the trigger. She told investigators she put the gun in her trunk and returned to the motel to sleep beside his body.

Police also linked a second slaying: O’Mara’s ex-husband, James Kelly O’Mara, was found dead of a gunshot to the head in Sauk Rapids, Minnesota, the day before Pies was discovered. Angelina O’Mara was charged in both deaths and later entered a plea in the Wisconsin case. Does anyone have information about Michael’s last movements or who saw him in Ashland around October 30–31, 2011?
