About this episode

This week on Current Affairs, two cases of love gone fatally wrong. In Houston, restaurateur Matthew Mitchell shot and killed his wife Thy and their two young children before turning the gun on himself, leaving the city's food scene and a tight-knit family in shock. In Miami, 18-year-old Jahara Malik was sentenced to 17 years for fatally stabbing her boyfriend Yahkeim "Keimo" Lollar in an apartment garage — a killing she claimed was an accident, and a sentence his family says still isn't enough. Current Affairs is Love Murder’s shorter show about the cases of love gone fatally wrong that are in the news right now.
