Summary

In June 2019, former Arkansas state senator Linda Collins was found stabbed to death outside her home. The killer was an unlikely suspect- Linda’s close friend and former campaign worker, Rebecca O’Donnell.

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the murderous Rebecca O'Donnell. It took police less than a month to zero in on and arrest Rebecca. But, during that time, a few people fell under suspicion. One person was Linda's ex-husband, Phil Smith. The two went through a very contentious divorce. Once Rebecca started talking, people couldn't believe the reasons why she killled her very good friend.
