## Resource

Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong unpacks the disturbing case of Janie Lou Gibbs, a churchgoing mother whose quiet devotion masked a deadly secret. In 1960s Georgia, Janie poisoned her husband, her sons, and her infant grandchild – one by one – while their deaths were dismissed as illness and tragedy. Candice examines how trust, faith, and familiarity allowed Janie to hide in plain sight until an autopsy finally exposed the truth.
