Chronicle 68: “Deadly Injection"

This episode is rated a 5 (on my Serious Crime Scale). When police found 24-year-old University of Florida student Michelle Herndon dead in her home, it appeared that, in an ironic twist of fate, the health-conscious young woman had suddenly and tragically passed away from natural causes. Although rare, situations like these aren’t as completely out of the ordinary as one might think. So, investigators began processing the case as such – a bizarre death due to natural circumstances. But the case took a sharp turn when the medical examiner discovered a tiny, meticulous needle prick in Michelle’s left arm, which soon led investigators to believe that Michelle had actually been murdered. Ultimately, it would take nearly three years and an international manhunt before her killer would be brought to justice. Listen now to hear the full story.
