Love Don't Cost a Thing: The Murder of Dr. Gulam Munda
from Moms and Mysteries: A True Crime Podcast · host Moms and Mysteries Podcast
Dr. Gulam Munda was a beloved urologist in Hermitage, Pennsylvania, known for his kindness, his generosity, and his impeccable reputation in the community. When he married Donna, a young woman he had met at his own practice, he gave her everything, including a lavish lifestyle, full financial support, and even a million-dollar divorce settlement when their marriage began to fall apart. But Donna had decided that was not enough. After losing her nursing license for stealing fentanyl from patients, Donna found herself in court-ordered rehab, where she met a 22-year-old cocaine dealer named Damien Bradford. The two began a full-blown affair, and Donna started funneling thousands of dollars a month into supporting him. When she realized that Dr. Munda was worth far more to her dead than alive, she came up with a plan: a staged highway robbery on the Ohio Turnpike that would leave her husband shot at point-blank range and Donna walking away with up to $6 million. What followed was a cell phone investigation that put Damien's phone within half a mile of the shooting, a plea deal that finally made him talk, and a courtroom moment where Donna broke down sobbing when she realized the man she had killed for had never planned to be with her at all.
