A quiet Michigan marriage. A husband found shot. And a wife whose story didn’t quite line up.

This week on A Couple of Sassholes, Heather tells Brooklyn the story of Carol Kopenkoskey and Lyle Kopenkoskey — a case that started as a supposed break-in and quickly unraveled into something much darker.

When Lyle was discovered inside the couple’s home in 1982, investigators initially considered burglary. But inconsistencies, shifting narratives, and suspicious behavior led authorities down a very different path.

This episode dives into:

• ​The timeline that didn’t make sense
• ​The relationships behind the scenes
• ​The investigation that changed everything
• ​The courtroom fallout

We focus on Lyle’s life and the tragedy at the center of this case — while also calling out manipulation and calculated decisions when we see them.
