The Murder of Jaime Melgar - (MU MINI) - Did Sandra Melgar kill her husband instead of choosing divorce?

🔍 Did Sandra Melgar Kill Her Husband – Or Was She Framed? In this Friday's MU Mini, Ed gives you the breakdown, letting you decide for yourself.

In December 2012, Sandra and Jaime “Jim” Melgar celebrated their 32nd wedding anniversary in what should have been a romantic evening at home in Houston, Texas. By the next day, Jim was found brutally stabbed to death—and Sandra was discovered bound and disoriented in a closet. Sandra claimed she had no memory of the attack, blaming a seizure and possible intruder. But investigators were suspicious from the start.

With no signs of forced entry, and inconsistent statements from Sandra, suspicion quickly turned into a murder charge.

Despite the lack of physical evidence—no blood on Sandra, no DNA, and unidentified profiles found in the home—a jury convicted her of murder in 2017. She was sentenced to 27 years in prison.

Now, with support from the Innocence Project of Texas and a $100,000 reward for new leads, Sandra Melgar continues to fight to prove her innocence. Is she a cunning killer… or the victim of tunnel vision and a botched investigation?
