49. The Murder of Bernita White

Today's episode is a cold case from Mallory's hometown of Lansing, Michigan... suggested by her 15-year-old, true crime-loving cousin. Thanks so much for the suggestion! 41-year-old Bernita White was shot and killed outside of the Potter Park Zoo. To make things even worse, it was in front of her 5-year-old daughter. This shooting sets the public into a panic, especially after police reveal she was shot from literal YARDS away. No one saw the shooter. Law enforcement quickly narrows down the suspect list. At the very top, her husband, Artis White, a detective sergeant for the Michigan State Police. It all goes off the rails from there. Listen now! What do you think?
