Remember her? She's a Liar // The Uloma Curry-Walker Story
Summary
Ray William Johnson recounts the true crime story of Yeloma, a woman who fabricated a stage 4 breast cancer diagnosis to trick her boyfriend, William, into marrying her. Her goal was to collect his life insurance payout to cover her massive debts, though she was not actually the beneficiary. She orchestrated his murder by hiring a hitman through her teenage daughter and her boyfriend, resulting in William's death. All conspirators were eventually arrested and sentenced to lengthy prison terms, with Yeloma receiving a life sentence.
