Summary

In 2014, 19-year old, Megan Hiatt created an online dating profile. She met a Navy man by the name of Gaiwain “Rush” Wilson. They were smitten and within 2 months, their whirlwind romance resulted in the pair moving in together and a month later, they were pregnant with twin girls. They were over the moon, but soon, Rush would show his true colors – easily agitated, extremely apologetic, and hypercritical of everything Megan did. But Megan, the product of a broken home, wanted to make things work for the baby girls she was carrying. Megan didn’t believe she was the victim of domestic abuse, because Rush never put his hands on her. After the girls were born, Megan had made up her mind to leave for the third and final time…but she made a frightful decision that altered her family and life forever. She told Rush she was leaving. Dig in with Margot as she has an extremely candid conversation with Megan. This interview was conducted in 2020. You already heard Margot tell you this story in Ep46, but in this episode – we hear the story from the survivor herself. ----- If you or someone you know is suffering from domestic abuse – please seek help.

Welcome back, Trooper Army. I am your host Margo, and this is Military Murder, a show where

0:06.6

I discuss crimes committed by military members and veterans, and sometimes military spouses.

0:12.6

But don't worry, you don't have to know anything about the military to listen, I promise.

0:16.7

You just have to be a Trooper enthusiast, and if that's you, welcome home.

0:21.0

Alright, welcome, welcome, welcome everyone. I want to do a little bit of a show reintroduction

0:26.8

because we have a ton of new listeners. I don't know where everyone is coming from because

0:31.5

I have tried to branch out in the last few weeks. I mean, I have new listeners from my

0:35.8

feature in true crime binge episode 52 with Bob Rough. I also have new listeners from my

0:41.2

segment with jewels on Riddle Me That. We chat about Levina Johnson, which is a case near

and dear to my heart, which I discuss in episode 40. I also have some new listeners from

1:15.0

some cases I've already covered on the show, but I also cover other cases that I haven't

1:19.8

covered and probably won't cover for a long time. Clearly, my TikToks are not as long

1:25.1

and as in depth as I get into cases on the podcast, but it allows me to cover more cases

1:31.6

in a short amount of time. Every week, I will be taking case recommendations only on TikTok

1:37.9

for TikTok cases, and I will pick a few to cover the following week. So for all the new

1:44.0

listeners and older like, I just want you to know, this show is pro military. I have immense

1:51.0

respect for my military, men and women who go out there and do the dang thing every single day.
