Listen Later

Recounts a murder case involving an elderly couple, Afaf and Anany, married for 35 years. It details Afaf’s extremely volatile and controlling behavior and her shocking reaction when Anany announced his intention to divorce her after their last child moved out. Afaf planned the murder for two weeks, poisoning her husband with sleeping pills in his food and then stabbing him 42 times, staging the scene to resemble a robbery. The narrative follows the police investigation, which initially suspected a robbery but later focused on Afaf due to inconsistencies in her story and forensic evidence, including the sleeping pills and the vengeful nature of the attack. It concludes with Afaf’s confession and a summary of the court’s account of her brutal crime.
