Testifying Against His Own Mom

Rather than keep quiet, her very own son, Seth, would testify against his own mother and tell the police about her months of plotting and actual guilt in murdering Gerry, along with her partner Michael. Finally, after years of trying to hold her down to the death of her third husband, being a bigamist multiple times, and having an incredible number of fraud charges, in 1995, Jill, along with Michael, was found guilty of first-degree murder and given a life sentence without the possibility of parole, which she is still serving at the Denver Women’s Correctional Facility.

The ‘Black Widow’

Since being caught, Jill has been nicknamed the ‘Black Widow’ because of her multiple marriages, as well as killing two husbands, all so that she could get their money. According to Stan Lewis, the detective that was hired to look into her past, “She’s a psychotic, vicious, ruthless black widow. She takes a sadistic, fiendish delight in prettying on well-meaning men to facilitate her ultimate goal of furthering her financial welfare.”
