Episode 074: The Murder of Angela Craig

On March 6, 2023, 43 year old Angela Craig went to the hospital because her head felt strange and she was feeling dizzy. She would be sent home that same day only to return a few days later, on March 9 with similar symptoms. She stayed in the hospital for a few days and was released on March 14 only to return the next day with even more severe symptoms. She went on to have a seizure and be placed on life support. Sadly, on March 18, Angela passed away and within hours, a suspect was arrested for her murder.
