Michigan men charged with murdering teen, killing another woman to keep her from talking
Two Northern Michigan men are accused of killing a teenager, burying her body, and then killing a woman who was involved with the murder to keep her quiet.
Authorities say Wirgau buried the body of 17-year-old Brynn Bills on his property after Brad Srebnik allegedly killed the teen in August 2021. Authorities say he also assisted with murdering 31-year-old Abby Hill the following month to keep her from talking about Bills' murder. Hill had picked up Bills and was the last person to see her alive.
The plea agreement carries a sentence of 15-30 years in prison.
