She Said She Loved Them. Then She Poisoned Them.
Description
Rhonda Belle Martin looked like a loving wife, a devoted mother, and a kind small-town waitress. But behind that gentle exterior was a deadly secret. Over nearly two decades, she poisoned the people closest to her. Husbands. Children. Even her own mother. Each death was slow, deliberate, and wrapped in the disguise of grief.
When investigators finally connected the pattern, the truth shocked Alabama and the entire country. Why did she do it? Money was scarce, sympathy was plentiful, and Rhonda herself gave no clear motive. In fact, she even asked doctors to examine her body after her execution, hoping it would explain why she killed the people she claimed to love.
This is the chilling story of the Black Widow of Alabama, a woman whose affection came with a fatal dose.
