The case of Howard Ashleman, which later got solved with the help of his wife, about killing James Allan Chambers is getting a lot of attention.

Howard Ashleman is getting the attention as the Dateline NBC scheduled to air a special episode The Bridge about the 2014 Fayetteville disappearance.

The episode highlights the incident of 2014 when a man named Ashleman brutally murdered a man named James Allan Chambers II and disappeared.

However, this murder didn’t come to the public’s knowledge until 2018 when the man was eventually punished for his deeds.

James’ parents suffered for about 4 years as the investigators were unable to find the actual culprit of the incident.

Eventually, the incident quickly unfolded after Howard’s wife helped the investigators to hand over a confession.

Who Is Howard Ashleman Wife: Where Is He Now?

Howard Ashleman later got married to his wife after the incident but her details are not known to the public due to privacy reasons.

It was while Ashleman was in Florida that he met his now-wife and got married. Maybe because she was the one who helped in the unfolding of the incident that her identity is not revealed.

Following a couple of years of the murder, Howard used to confess his deed several times due to the guilt.

His wife recorded the confession in one of those times and handed it to the police.

After the surfacing of the evidence, Howard was arrested by the police and sentenced to prison in 2018.

Talking about Howard Ashleman’s present condition, he is in a prison at Columbus Correctional Institution in Brunswick, N.C. as reported by Distractify.

Furthermore, he is mentioned to be in prison until his release date that is set in 2033.

How Old Is Howard Ashleman And Who Is He?

Howard Ashleman’s age is 28 years old.

The sources while reporting the incident have mentioned his current age to be 28 but the exact birthdate details are unknown.

Talking about who Ashleman is, he is the same person who killed the lifeguard James Allan Chambers II back in 2014.

Howard and James are reported to have hatred for each other and one night on August 15 of 2014, Ashleman killed Chambers.

The culprit was driving Chambers to his duty a couple of towns over and while on the road, he pulled his truck to the side and killed James by pulling out a gun.

After murdering the man, Howard burned Chambers’ dead body and buried him. But later he recovered James’ body, dismantled it and threw it in a river by putting it in plastic bags.

He also crushed his truck in a salvage yard and disappeared. But he later developed the guilt of murdering Chambers and started confessing to his wife several times.

That is when his wife recorded a video and handed it to the police.
