Episode 7 - New York v. Carolyn Warmus: The Fatal Attraction Murder

In Episode 7, Lisa and Kyle talked about the State of New York v. Carolyn Warmus.  On January 15, 1989, Betty Jeanne Solomon was found by her husband, Paul Solomon, in their condo in Greenburgh, Westchester County, New York.  The investigation initially focused on Paul Solomon, who had engaged in an extra-marital affair with a younger woman, Carolyn Warmus.  During the Summer of 1989, investigation of Warmus’ phone records led detectives to a PI named Vinnie Parco.  Parco eventually admitted to illegally selling Warmus a gun and silencer in the weeks before Betty Jeanne’s murder.  Warmus’ indictment and arrest in February, 1990, led the media to refer the case as “The Fatal Attraction Murder.” After two trials, Warmus was convicted of 2nd Degree Murder and 2nd Degree Criminal Possession of a Weapon and sentenced to 25 to Life on the murder charge and 5-15 on the weapons charge.  They covered the evidence against Warmus, her troubled relationship history, her trials, conviction, appeals and her continued claims of wrongful conviction.
