Show notes

In November 2005, Morgantown, West Virginia, pediatric nurse practitioner Shelly Michael injected her sleeping husband Jimmy with a surgical paralytic, then set their home ablaze to conceal the crime. What investigators found —a body without soot in its lungs, a secret affair, and a controlled medication only she could access — built an airtight case against a woman her community trusted completely.
