And you're listening to Going West. Hello everybody.

Thank you so much for tuning in today. And big shout out to Renee for recommending this truly

twisty case that I had not heard about prior somehow. Yeah, I hadn't heard about this case either,

but it seems like it would be way more well known.. Yeah, and because of the turns that it takes,

I just can't wait to see what you all think of the details

in which way you guys really sway regarding the resolution.

Well, let's not waste any more time.

Let's get into today's story.

I'm In July of 2008, a 53-year-old mother, artist, and counselor, was found bludgeon to death in her Arizona home, just 35 days after

finalizing her divorce. At first, it appeared to be the tragic result of a random home invasion.

Thank you. This is the murder of Carol Kennedy. Virginia Carol Kennedy was born on July 25th, 1954 to parents Ruth and Alvin Kennedy in Nashville, Tennessee,

joining an older brother named John.
