003 US v. Turner

As 2014 wound down, the Turner family spent their holidays like millions of other folks in the United States – they spent time with loved ones and celebrated the festivities. They took the time to make the long drive from Colorado Springs down to Georgia and then up to Tennessee, to visit with those who had profound impacts upon their lives. But, on New Year’s Day, while the rest of the world made resolutions and committed to being better versions of themselves in 2015, Malcolm and Annelyntherese Turner devolved into the worst versions of themselves and tried their hands at murder.

002 US v. Day

In 2019, the command at Barksdale Air Force Base was in crisis. Over the course of the prior 12 months, they dealt with five homicides connected to the base. This doesn’t even include the case we covered in our first episode, United States v. Edwards, who was also convicted of murder at Barksdale Air Force Base. The pace of killing seemed to be picking up and the base commander expressed that he was “deeply concerned for the safety of the military members and their families assigned to Barksdale.” But Katelyn Day, an Airman First Class, had her own ticking time clock pushing the pace for the murder of her husband.
