Southern Fried True Crime

17: Cold Cold Heart: Murderess Shelly Michael (Part 1)

The story of Shelly Michael, wife, mother, stepmother, nurse practitioner and murderer could not be contained in one episode. I hope you enjoy part one of this West Virginian saga about a former Mountaineer cheerleader turned murderess.  Sources: <a href="https://www.southernfriedtruecrime.com/17-18-shelly-michael" rel="noopener">https://www.southernfriedtruecrime.com/17-18-shelly-michael</a> If you’re interested in learning more about this case, check out my best source. Author John Glatt wrote the definitive work on Shelly Michael: Playing with Fire: A Nurse, Her Husband, and a Marriage Turned Fatal. He covers Shelly’s trial in depth as well as many more players in this story I didn’t have time for.
