Husband Charged 19 Years After Wife’s Murder at His Amusement Park [Current Affairs]

In 2006, mother of three Doris Worrell was shot and killed at the Georgia amusement park owned by her husband, Jon Worrell. Nearly two decades later, after years abroad and a new interview with the family’s former nanny, Jon was arrested and accused of arranging his wife’s murder.

Current Affairs is Love Murder's shorter show about the cases of love gone fatally wrong that are in the news right now.
