Linda and Jack Jones were married for thirty years. During that time, they had two daughters and eventually bought their dream home in Lake Asbury, Florida.
By the mid-1990s, the couples kids had moved out, and Linda took in a high school senior with whom she had worked.
She later learned that the girl and her husband were having an affair and threw the girl out.
Jack refuses to end the affair, and Linda discovers that he had rented the girl an apartment and an engagement ring.
Linda couldn’t handle it, and she started plotting Jack’s demise. On November 7th, 1995, Jack was killed during a home invasion robbery gone wrong.
A witness saw the getaway vehicle, and that led detectives to the three killers. They told authorities Linda was the mastermind. Two men got 10 years, and a third got death.
Linda was sentenced to life in prison plus 13 years on November 6th, 1997.
