The Victims of Gwendolyn Graham and Cathy Wood
Show Notes

Gwendolyn Graham and her girlfriend Cathy Wood met while working in a nursing home in Grand Rapids, MI. Their volatile relationship escalated as the two shared dark fantasies of committing murders together. They discussed targeting their coworkers at the nursing home, before settling on much more vulnerable victims -- the patients. No one at the home suspected the couple of their attacks, and they may have gotten away with it if it weren't for Cathy bragging about the murders. Ultimately the women were  convicted of five counts of homicide thirty three years ago this week. 

Writing and research by Aurora Cady.
