Teacher Brutally Murdered After Partying at Florida Bar

About this episode

This episode details the criminal case of Matthew Terry, who was convicted of the first-degree murder of Kay Baker, a third-grade teacher in Florida. After a night out, Terry brutally attacked Baker following a jealous dispute at a bar, leaving her nearly decapitated in a neighbor's yard. A critical element of the prosecution was the testimony of Michelle Rogers, a former girlfriend who survived a strikingly similar knife attack by Terry in Michigan years prior. Although the defense suggested a fictional intruder was responsible, the jury found the evidence of Terry's premeditated violence undeniable. Terry was eventually sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole, escaping the death penalty despite the severity of his actions.
