This episode details the chilling investigation into Julene Simco, who was ultimately convicted of murdering her husband, Jeremy Simco, in their Ohio home in 2009. Although Julene initially reported a fictitious intruder, law enforcement spent years uncovering a web of inconsistencies, including the suspicious lack of foreign DNA and the discovery of a "slave contract" that revealed a deeply toxic and controlling marriage. Prosecutors successfully argued that Juleneâs history of childhood trauma and her husbandâs abusive behavior provided a motive for the point-blank shooting. Despite her persistent denials during recorded police interrogations, digital evidence and damning testimony from neighbors and medical staff exposed her deception. The case concluded nearly eight years later when a judge found her guilty of aggravated murder, sentencing her to 28 years in prison.
