Sex on the beach
Now that I have your attention ...
Tonight on the Oxygen channel is what I guess passes for a TV documentary on the murder of Brent Poole by his wife, Renee and her lover, John Frazier, at Myrtle Beach. It happened in June 1998 and she was convicted a year later. Although love triangles are as old as the Bible, this one was more than your garden variety boy meets girl, girl meets other boy, boy-girl kill first boy. Ms. Poole had worked as a stripper, and the killing took place after a romantic interlude on the beach. It attracted national coverage. If you watch it, look for Chris Quinn, the Journal reporter who covered much of the trial. Here’s the court’s ruling on Poole’s writ of habeas corpus.
What’s amazing is that this was 10 years ago. Where did the time go?
