Before Jean Chamberlain died Feb. 16 in her Roy home, prosecutors say her husband had amassed a small library of suspicious titles. "The Peaceful Pill Handbook." "The Final Exit." "If You Go Into A Nursing Home, Will Your Spouse Go To The Poor House?"
The books and articles provided arguments for assisted suicide, warnings against nursing homes, and ways to kill a person without being caught for instance, suffocation with a helium-filled bag. Techniques are punctuated with handwritten notes such as "Excellent," "How to do it," and "Silence is your best protection."
But in Dennis Vance Chamberlains preliminary hearing Friday, his defenders pointed to an open-ended autopsy, which could not deduce the cause of the death of a 70-year-old woman who suffered "a plethora" of maladies, from an early stroke to an enlarged heart.

Smith said actions Dennis Chamberlain had taken on the day his wife died later aroused suspicion among other family members. Hed called his family and hed called the mortuary, but he failed to call any medical services and he didnt call law enforcement, Smith said. [He] told his family that certain people had come to the house and pronounced that his wife was dead.
But Smith said police later discovered that didnt happen.
Some of these misleading statements became kind of suspicious to the family and so they came to the police about a week after their mother had been buried in Bountiful and asked that we look into it, Smith said.

According to Smith, Jeans body was exhumed from the Bountiful City Cemetery a few weeks after her death, and that over the following months, investigators obtained warrants to search the Chamberlain home.
He said detectives found evidence that Chamberlain was researching methods to commit suicide without being detected, including Internet records and a book of suicide instructions obtained by investigators. Smith noted that some of the researched items that could be used to cover an intentional death were found inside the Chamberlain home.
