Private lenders.
Maxed-out credit cards.
Over $120,000 in consumer debt.
Then Ray told me something worse.
Six weeks before Maggie went to Knoxville, Brittany had called a life insurance company asking about claim timelines and beneficiary rules for a policy in Maggie’s name.
Maggie had a $400,000 policy.
Suddenly, everything was clear.
They had not been waiting to inherit.
They had been planning to collect.
The lab results confirmed it.
Maggie’s mug contained crushed alprazolam. Brittany had ordered it online weeks before Maggie arrived, using a PO box in her own name.
Her search history was even worse.
How much Xanax causes unconsciousness.
Sedative overdose symptoms.
How long alprazolam stays in the body.
Can sleeping medication cause death if untreated.
Charges were filed.
Attempted murder.
Conspiracy.
Elder abuse.
Criminal poisoning.
Kevin and Brittany were arrested the next morning.
Then came the lies.
Their attorney went on television and claimed Maggie had been secretly self-medicating, that Kevin and Brittany had only been trying to help her.
