John Skelton confided marriage problems, ‘take matters into my own hands’

Charlene O’Brien, John Skelton’s aunt by marriage, testified at his pretrial hearing that he confided to her about a week before Thanksgiving in 2010 that he was having marriage problems and that he thought his wife was “messing with” the children. When she told him to call the police, she testified he said he’d take matters into his own hands and stormed out.
