This is a story about two botched murder attempts by hired hitmen.

And what happened when 65-year old Joyce Sturdivant took matters into her own hands.

One of the most common forms of homicide is when one half of a couple kills the other.

Women are usually the victims of this form of homicide.

Only one percent of male victims are killed by a partner.

But in this case, 65-year old Joyce Sturdivant knocked off her husband after the hitmen she hired failed to kill Big Joe Sturdivant, a burly stock car racer in Central Texas. 

In this True Crime Reporter™, Confidential Robert Riggs reveals that Joyce got away with murder for two years until his cohost former U.S. prosecutor Bill Johnston got on her case.
