On May 20, 2009, his wife, Gabrielle Dawn Schoeneweis, 39, was found dead on the floor of the master bedroom in their suburban Fountain Hills, Arizona home by Kiley, his wife's 14-year-old daughter from a first marriage. According to the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office, she was unresponsive when sheriff's deputies arrived at 12:11 p.m. MST, responding to a call made by Kiley. A spokesperson for the Sheriff's Office said there were no signs of foul play, and while they were not ruling anything out, they were not treating it as a homicide initially. The cause of death was determined by an autopsy to be an overdose of cocaine and the anesthetic lidocaine according to a Maricopa County appellate court. Schoeneweis and his wife had four children (ages 14, 7, 5, and 2), including his wife's daughter from a prior marriage, and had celebrated their 10th anniversary in January 2009.
