Well, let me tell you somethin’ about this Philip Snider fella. Folks been askin’ is he still kickin’ or not. It’s a sad story, real sad. Is Philip Snider Still Alive? That’s the question, ain’t it? Let me tell you what I heard.
This Philip, he was married to a woman named Roberta, for 53 years they say. Can you imagine that? 53 years! That’s a long time to be hitched to someone. But things weren’t always peachy keen, I reckon. See, they say Philip did somethin’ terrible. Real terrible.
First, he tried to pull a fast one on the police. Said Roberta just up and disappeared after a trip to see that Elvis fella’s house, that Graceland place. Imagine that! Said she went off on her own. But nobody bought it, not for a minute. Somethin’ wasn’t right, you could smell it in the air.
- He told them a story ’bout Graceland, you know, that Elvis place?
- But the police, they weren’t dumb. They knew somethin’ was fishy.
Turns out, Philip wasn’t tellin’ the truth. Not even close. He did somethin’ awful to Roberta. They say he, well, he killed her. Murdered her, is what they said. Can you believe it? After 53 years of marriage! What a waste. Makes you sick to your stomach, it does.
This happened a while back, you see. They said he confessed in 2018. That’s when he finally came clean. Said he did it. And not just killed her, but did other bad things too. Tampering with evidence they called it. And somethin’ ’bout abuse of a corpse. Don’t even want to think about that, it’s too gruesome.
He made a deal, they say. A plea deal. That means he said he was guilty so he wouldn’t get the worst punishment. They gave him 20 years to life. 20 years! That’s a long time, but is it long enough for takin’ a life? Especially the life of the woman you were married to for all those years. Makes you wonder what goes on in some folks’ heads.
So, is he still alive then? Well, they gave him 20 years to life in 2018. Do the math. It ain’t been 20 years yet. So, chances are, he’s still around. Locked up somewhere, I reckon. Payin’ for what he did. And that’s where he should be, if you ask me.
They say he “came in like a fresh friend”. I ain’t exactly sure what that means, but it sounds like he tried to act all innocent at first. Tried to fool folks. But like I said, the police weren’t born yesterday. They figured him out.
This whole thing, it happened in a place called Alliance. I read about it in somethin’ called the Alliance Review. That’s a newspaper, I think. They printed all the details. All the sad, sorry details of what Philip Snider did.
It just goes to show you, you never really know what’s goin’ on behind closed doors. 53 years of marriage, and then this. It’s a tragedy, that’s what it is. A real, heart-breakin’ tragedy. And the answer to the question is Philip Snider still alive, is most likely yes. He’s probably in prison still serving his time for the murder of his wife Roberta. It’s a terrible thing he did after all those years, just terrible. It makes you wonder about some people. Makes you hold your loved ones a little tighter, that’s for sure.
I heard some folks sayin’ he pleaded guilty to aggravated murder. That sounds serious, real serious. Aggravated. Means it was worse than just plain murder, I guess. And that abuse of a corpse thing… just shivers down your spine thinkin’ about it.
So there you have it. The story of Philip Snider. A sad story, but a true one. And the answer to your question, as far as I can tell, is yes, he’s alive, but locked away. And that’s where he belongs, after what he did. Lord have mercy.
