On June 19, 1975, Glenn, a civilian employee at Fort Carson; Corbett, a soldier; and another soldier kidnapped Daniel Van Lone, a 29-year-old cook who was leaving his job at the Four Seasons hotel. They intended to rob him. They drove Van Lone to a remote area, made him lie on the ground, and shot him in the head. They stole 50 cents from him.

Eight days later, Glenn and Corbett met Winfred Proffitt, age 19, another Fort Carson soldier, at Prospect Lake. They intended to sell him some marijuana. Having been trained in the use of bayonets, Corbett stabbed Proffitt with one of them[2] to see what it was like.

Glenn and Corbett committed their final and most publicized murder on July 1, 1975. Glenn, Corbett, and two other men decided to rob a Red Lobster restaurant, located on South Academy Boulevard. They left without any money. An employee of the restaurant, 18 year-old Karen Grammer, was waiting for her boyfriend to finish work.[2] Thinking she may be able to identify them, the four men kidnapped her.

After robbing a convenience store, the men took Grammer to the apartment they shared, where they raped her repeatedly. They promised to take Grammer home, but instead, they put a cloth over her head, then drove her to a mobile home park on South Wahsatch Avenue. Glenn, who according to court testimony had taken LSD,[2] stabbed Grammer in the throat, back and hand, and left her to die.

In an attempt to save herself, she ran toward the back porch of a nearby home, but the homeowners were not present. She died at the property, leaving bloody hand and fingerprints where she tried to reach the doorbell.[3] For a week, police were unable to determine who she was until her roommate at the time called to report her missing and subsequently identified her.[2]

Trial and conviction
Glenn was convicted in 1976 for the murders of Daniel Van Lone, Winfred Profitt, and Karen Grammer. Judge Hunter Hardeman, noting "there was no rhyme or reason for what happened," sentenced Glenn to the gas chamber for Karen Grammer's murder.[2]

Two years later, the Colorado Supreme Court overturned the state's death penalty. When Glenn was sentenced, the law allowed parole after he served 10 years. Because he was sentenced to three consecutive life terms, he became eligible for parole in 2006. Corbett remained in prison until his death in 2019.[4]

Parole denial
In 2009, Glenn was denied parole once after the Colorado Parole Board received a letter from Karen's brother, actor Kelsey Grammer, who described Glenn as a "butcher" and a "monster". The board also heard from several other relatives of the victims and from detectives before deciding not to release Glenn from prison. Grammer had originally planned to attend the hearing at the state's Limon Correctional Facility, but a rain delay caused him to miss a connecting flight. Instead, Grammer sent a letter to Robert Russel, the retired El Paso County, Colorado District Attorney who successfully prosecuted Glenn. During the hearing, Glenn told the board, "I apologize for my participation in something so terrible. I am sincerely
