The Black Widow of Waco: The Darlene Gentry Story

from Moms and Mysteries: A True Crime Podcast · host Moms and Mysteries Podcast

On a November morning in 2005, Darlene Gentry made a frantic 911 call, claiming her husband, Keith, had been shot by an intruder. To investigators arriving at their Waco, Texas home, it seemed like a tragic home invasion. Darlene played the part of a grieving widow perfectly, and the community rallied around her. But as detectives dug deeper, the facade of a perfect marriage began to crumble. They uncovered a story of greed, infidelity, and cold-blooded calculation. Darlene, a former beauty queen with a love for the high life, had secrets she was desperate to keep hidden. This week, we unravel the case against Darlene Gentry, from the staged crime scene and the suspicious 911 call to the shocking evidence that revealed a murder plot motivated by a desire to fund a lavish lifestyle. #truecrime #truecrimepodcast #momsandmysteries #darlenegentry #keithgentry #wacotexas #blackwidow #deadlywomen #snapped New episodes every Tuesday and Thursday!
