Kristil Krug: She Did Everything Right | Broomfield, Colorado
from PNW Haunts & Homicides · host PNW Haunts and Homicides
In October 2023, Kristil Krug began receiving threatening messages she believed were coming from an ex-boyfriend she hadn't spoken to in years. She filed police reports, kept a detailed log, installed cameras, obtained a concealed carry permit, and ran home defense drills with her children. She told her father: "Someone's going to die. It's either me or him."She was right. She just didn't know the threat was already inside her house.On December 14, 2023, eleven days before Christmas, Kristil's husband Daniel was waiting for her when she came home. What investigators discovered in the hours that followed would redefine everything the people who loved her thought they knew — and expose a level of premeditation that shocked even seasoned law enforcement.What followed — the digital trail he left behind, the innocent man he spent months trying to frame, and the landmark pieces of legislation her family fought to pass in her name — is the story of a woman who did everything right, the system that wasn't fast enough to save her, and a cousin who refused to let her death be the end of the story.Visit our website!
