Jared Bridegan’s murder: Ex-wife’s husband spotted in Florida the day after the suspect appeared in court

FIRST ON FOX – Ex-wife Jared Bridegan’s husband was spotted Friday shaving off his beard in the front yard of his Kissimmee, Fla., home, a day after his former tenant stood trial for Bridegan’s murder.

Mario Fernandez, 35, dressed in shorts and a burgundy shirt, shaved his beard in front of his condominium.

At one point, he sat down in the driveway cutting his facial hair with an electric razor before heading back inside.
