Story here. Excerpt:

'The 76-year-old Georgia woman sits in a North Carolina jail, accused of hiring a hit man to kill fourth husband Harold Gentry. Authorities are re-examining the deaths of her first child and four of the five men she married, including Gentry.

No motive has been discussed, but records and interviews with relatives and police officials paint Neumar as a domineering matriarch consumed by money.

Said Al Gentry, who pressed North Carolina authorities for 22 years to reopen their investigation of his brother's death: "You can't trust her. You can't believe a word she says."'

Comments

Even MRA's, when discussing DV, seem fond of pointing out that husbands murder their wives more often than vice versa. Sometimes I wonder how much that statistic is skewed though - someone once told me that wives usually get a hit man, friend, relative, or etc to do the actually killing, so it gets recorded as a "multiple offender killing" instead of spousal murder.

women have different tools (so to speak) they use for
murder. tampering w/ food, medication and such are areas
where women feel safest. i have been to funerals (2) where the
husband was whispered to have been poisoned; but, if the victim
is elderly or has health problems i seriously doubt cash
strapped counties will do the type investigations we see on t.v.

more like

"hey bubba, is that a tar track on his back?"

"nah, i got a t- shirt w/ that same pattern.
wife said he had a bad heart".

i've said it before. all married men who die w/o a certain COD
should have a tox-screen, minimum. that would be interesting.
if women were found guilty of murder they would throw the book at them.
some could probably get as much as 6 months, probation.
