A former Family Feud contestant has been accused of killing his estranged wife, and resurfaced jokes he made on the show about his marriage are raising eyebrows.

Timothy “Tim” Bliefnick, 39, was arrested Monday in Quincy, Ill., and charged with two counts of first-degree murder and one count of home invasion, police said in a press release.

His wife, Rebecca “Becky” Bliefnick, 41, was found dead in her home on Feb. 23, her body riddled with bullets. A family member had gone to her home to check on her, after she failed to pick up her three kids from school. “This brutal crime has had the Quincy community on edge and our residents living in fear,” Quincy Police Chief Adam Yates said on the department’s Facebook page. “I hope today’s announcement can begin to calm some of those concerns.” Bliefnick previously made headlines for appearing with his parents and siblings on the game show Family Feud.

Clips of his appearance, which contain an ominous-sounding joke, have resurfaced following Becky’s death. “What’s your biggest mistake you made at your wedding?” host Steve Harvey asked in an episode that aired in January 2020. “Honey, I love you, but, ‘said I do,'” Bliefnick replied, prompting a mixed reaction from the crowd.
