I am looking for information on this specific case, as well as copies of the
photos. Please reply here if you have any information.
And yes, I'm seriously a journalist working on a story, and the photos do
exist.
I don't remember names, but I remember the story quite well. I
believe the woman was married to the murdered man. One day, her
boyfriend snuck into the house & stabbed him - as he & she had
planned. Once that was done, they got naked, probably had sex, &
proceeded to dismember the body, turning it into a "festive" occasion
by taking lots of pictures. The next day, she went to the police to
turn her boyfriend in for the murder. From what I understand, she
tried to make it sound like it was all his idea & that she had
absolutely nothing to do with it. She thought she'd gotten away
clean, but when the cops found the boyfriend in her garage to arrest
him, the camera with the film was still there as well. Naturally, the
pictures of her gleefully assisting in the butchering of the
deceased's corpse did little to convince anyone that she was just an
innocent bystander. :-) I'll post the names & such if I find them,
but there's the story as I remember it.

Certainly that's where I would look for them.
They took the film to be developed by a friend where he worked as he knew
about the murder. A co-worker saw the developed film and called the police.

That's what I have always thought. But one of the links says that isn't
true, that the woman in the pics went to the police next day. Wish we knew
for sure which story is true. I hope the camera/film developer one is how
the arrest happened.

Please post links. I'm currently searching florida newspapers for
confirmation. If I can get a location I'll contact the local police for
info.
Thanks :)
I've found decent copies of the photos, I'm now trying to verify the story.
So was he stabbed in the neck or shot in the head??
Detroit, July 14, 1982. The victim Bobby ( ROBERT BERKOWITZ.) is shot
by James Edward Glover,
then 36, and Bobby's girlfriend (not wife) Jeannine Lynn Clark,
aka Charlie, then 21. Bobby is shot in the back of the head with
a large calibre copper jacketed bullet which lodges at the base
of his skull. They then proceed to hack up the body while taking
pictures, usually in (to them) humorous poses. The film is left
in the camera.
To make this brief, on July 17 Jeannine comes to the police
station and reports that Jimmy has killed and butchered her
boyfriend (Bobby), and that he (Jimmy) is still at Bobby's house.
The police respond, find the body, Jimmy (in the garage), AND
the camera with film inside.
JEANNINE SAYS SHE WAS FORCED TO HELP DISPOSE OF THE BODY, THE POLICE
DEVELOPED THE FILM AND SEE A SMILING JEANNINE ( DONT HELP HER DEFENCE
)
The film is processed, the results analyzed, which leads to:
James Edward Glover pled guilty on November 30, 1982. He is
sentenced to 30-50 years for 2nd degree murder, 2 years for
possession of a firearm during commission of a felony, and 6-10
years for mutilation of a dead human body.
Jeannine Lynn Clark was found guilty by a jury on February 2,
1983 and sentenced on Febuary 23 to 6-10 years for mutilation of
a dead human body.
Presumedly, Jeannine is out by now on these charges. Choose your
girlfriends carefully.
