0:00.0	Hi everyone I hope you all doing so well and welcome back to the criminal makeup podcast.
0:14.4	Each episode we dive into the minds of some of the worst criminals in history and today we are going to be talking about one of the most incredible displays of human strength I think I've ever come across.
0:27.4	Because back in August of 2015 on a summer's day in Franklin County, Ohio, an absolutely terrible incident would occur.
0:37.0	Because 31-year-old Judy Malinowski got into an argument with her 40-year-old boyfriend Michael Slager and then Michael got out a
0:46.9	canister of gasoline, poured it all over Judy, pulled out a lighter, and set her on fire.
0:54.0	I don't have this shot a woman on fire.
0:57.0	A guy set what on fire?
0:58.0	Don't have you shot her water on fire?
1:01.0	And Judy went completely up in flames. She was on fire, literally head to toe.

1:33.8	video and following the horrific incident Judy Malinowski would become the
1:39.5	first person ever to testify in her own murder trial. Yes, you heard that right and I won't say anymore now, but this case is crazy. It is one of those cases that it just doesn't feel real. I just don't know how one person has gone through so much. Like I said, this really is one of the most
1:57.2	incredible displays of human strength I have ever come across, so let's dive in.
2:18.6	Judy Malinowski was born on the 26th of August 1983 to parents Bonnie and Thomas Hensel and she grew up in the city of Columbus Ohio where she also lived with her younger sister Danielle and her younger brother Patrick.
2:25.6	Now growing up it is said that Judy had a very happy childhood.
2:29.7	She absolutely adored her siblings, Daniel and Patrick.
