Stacey Castor was an American woman convicted of murdering her husband and attempting to frame her daughter for the crime. She used poison as the method, leading to her nickname "The Black Widow." Castor was arrested and convicted, receiving a prison sentence. She died in custody in 2016. Her case is notable for the manipulation and deception involved in the crimes.

Today’s true crime case takes us to 22nd August 2005 when Onondaga County sheriff's department in the state of New York received the following call from a woman called Stacey Castor who was concerned about her husband who she said had locked himself in their bedroom and was refusing to come out. Police arrived at the couple’s home in the village of Liverpool and, after forcing the door, found 48 year old David Castor dead, sprawled over his bed having apparently ended his own life by drinking anti-freeze. Stacey put in quite the performance, screaming when she found out her husband had passed away but it was all an act. Stacey had murdered David and this was not the first time she had killed she had poisoned her first husband Michael Wallace, again with anti-freeze, who had died just 5 years earlier. However, this may not have been the only person she killed before this point, there are suspicions that she also killer her own father in 2002. With regards to the murder of David, the Police were suspicious and, when the walls started closing in on Stacey, this devil in human form, tried to killer her own daughter and frame her for both murders. Stacey Castor’s level of evil, complete inhumanity and willingness to kill those around her, including her own child, means she fully earned the black widow monicker used to describe her in the media Chapters 00:00:00 Start 00:00:40 Intro 00:02:29 Stacey Castor 00:04:59 Deterioration of the marriage and the murder of Michael Wallace 00:09:22 Meeting David Castor and their relationship 00:13:20 The murder of David Castor 00:18:12 The investigation 00:22:54 The attempted murder of Ashley Wallace 00:34:09 Legal proceedings 00:34:51 Court clips start 00:51:39 Court clips end 00:53:17 Stacey Castor, a serial killer? 00:55:10 Stacey Castor: A profile 01:03:09 End Evil among us is a channel which focuses on horrific serious cases from the UK and abroad with a focus on lesser known cases and serial murderers from around the world.
