A “church lady” in small-town Georgia. A trusted daycare operator. A grieving wife and mother.

And five funerals.

In this episode of Hitched 2 Homicide, we dig into the chilling case of Janie Lou Gibbs—the Georgia serial killer who poisoned her own family with arsenic, including her husband, three sons, and an infant grandson, all while collecting money and playing the role of the devoted caretaker.

We’ll walk you through the timeline of deaths, the red flags that finally turned “bad luck” into a homicide investigation, and the courtroom twists—including an insanity plea that delayed justice for years.

If you think the most dangerous predator is always a stranger… this one will change your mind.

Listener Advisory: This episode includes discussion of child death and poisoning.
