On this episode of Wife of Crime I'm telling Russ about the most notorious serial killer in Texas history! Kenneth McDuff was a life long bully and trouble maker who, not surprisingly would end up on death row in 1966 for a triple homicide. 10 years later, because of the death penalty being banned nationwide and Texas prisons being overcrowded HE GOT OUT!! He would go on to ruthlessly murder multiple women over the next few years. Because of McDuff, the State of Texas had to change the way they handled paroles and punishments. Moral of this story... "Hell is empty and all the devils are here" - William Shakespeare

On this week's episode, I'm telling Russ the case of Mike and Denise Williams. In December of 2000 Mike Williams went missing while on a duck hunting trip at Lake Seminole. Police quickly came to the conclusion that this must have been a tragic accident. BUT there was one person who knew in her heart that this was way more than just an accident, and she spent 17 years on a mission to prove it! Moral of the story... "there is no force on earth more powerful than a mother's love."

On this week's episode I'm telling Russ all about the wrongful conviction and exoneration of a woman named Julie Rae! Her story is totally nuts and actually brings up 2 other cases we have already covered. Way back in 2020 I told Russ about the case of Darlie Routier and my opinion on it caused us to get more hate e-mail then any other episode! Julie's case is eerily similar to Darlie's and may even make some of you question if Darlie should be on death row right now. Moral of the story... Its the one's claiming to do good but are actually causing harm that we should be the most afraid of. The real villains are the wolves in sheep's clothing.

On this week's episode I'm telling Russ 3 cases of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women in America. The cases of Kaysera Stops Pretty Places, Henny Scott and Kimberly Bearclaw Iron. Big Horn County Montana is like ground zero for the MMIW movement. There are countless cases of women disappearing or being murdered in the area but their cases never get solved. The issues in Big Horn County are multidimensional but the fact of the matter is these women deserve justice. Sadly there are many reservations in the U.S. and Canada with the same problems and the MMIW movement is on a mission to build awareness.

As her fame and fortune grew so did her hair and so did her secrets and lies! She formed a church in Brentwood Tennessee made up of a congregation full of disordered eating, child abuse and even a murder. Moral of this story...
