Summary

In 2008, Marine Sergeant Janek Pawel Pietrzak and his beautiful wife Quiana Jenkins were just beginning their lives together as newlyweds. They had recently purchased a home, gotten married, and Sergeant P had just reenlisted in the Marines and accepted a $30k bonus. Life was good. The Pietrzak’s were ready to take on the world, until they were brutally executed in their home, in French Valley, California. The murder scene was horrific and the murders appeared to be motivated by greed. Was the brutal murder committed by a stranger, or someone much closer to home? Dig in with Margot as she discusses the murder investigation of Janek Pietrzak and Quiana Jenkins-Pietrzak, and the ensuing trials against the perpetrators. ----- Read about Military Murder Podcast as featured in Task & Purpose.
