34: The Thanksgiving Butcher & The Murder of Bill Nelson
Episode description
Hello and welcome to Crime & Spirits Podcast where your hosts, Bree and Suze, teach you all about some true crime, spooky stories, and how to make one heck of a good cocktail.
This week the girls will discuss the Thanksgiving Butcher, a moniker given to a woman named Omaima Nelson. She was convicted of killing her husband Bill on Thanksgiving in 1991. What makes this case notable isn't Omaima's history or even the brutal nature of the murder itself but the steps Omaima took to ensure they would never meet again. Even in the afterlife.
For sipping along this week, Suze is making a Spiked Hibiscus Tea. Buckle up buttercups and sip tight, it's about to get really weird.
Come hang out with us on social media! This is where we post the shopping lists (so you can stock up your bar ahead of time), drink recipes, and other fun things. -Instagram: @crimeandspiritspod -Facebook: @crimeandspiritspod -Twitter: @crimespiritspod
