Ep 5. Carolyn King and Bradley Martin

Carolyn King and Bradley Martin had been married for 19 years before things went terribly wrong. The seemingly happy couple was known to their friends and family as being a tight-knit pair who enjoyed spending time together. However, behind closed doors, their relationship was far more complicated.

It all started with Brad's addiction to prescription medication. He had been taking them for years and had become increasingly dependent on them. Carolyn had tried to help him in the past, but nothing seemed to work. Their marriage was strained, and Brad's addiction was taking a toll on both of them.

One day, Carolyn decided that she had had enough. She told Brad that she wanted a divorce, which sent him over the edge. In a fit of rage, Brad strangled Carolyn and left her lifeless body in their bedroom. He then proceeded to cover up the murder by staging it to look like a burglary gone wrong.

At first, Brad's plan seemed to be working. The police suspected that a burglar had broken in and killed Carolyn. However, as the investigation continued, the authorities began to uncover evidence that pointed to Brad as the killer.

The prosecution argued that Brad had killed Carolyn out of jealousy and fear of losing her. They presented evidence of his prescription drug addiction and his erratic behavior leading up to the murder. They also pointed out that Brad had a history of violence, having been arrested for domestic assault a few years prior.

The defense argued that Carolyn's death was a tragic accident. They claimed that Brad had only meant to scare her and had unintentionally caused her death. They also argued that his prescription drug addiction had clouded his judgment and made him act out of character.

In the end, the jury found Brad guilty of murder. He was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Carolyn's friends and family were left to grieve the loss of a beloved mother, daughter, and friend.
