Julia Lynn Turner[1] (née Womack; July 13, 1968 – August 30, 2010[2]) was an American woman who was convicted in the poisoning deaths of her two husbands.
In 2001, the death of Randy Thompson, described as her common-law husband, under arguably similar circumstances aroused the suspicion of law enforcement.
In 1991 Julia Lynn met a Cobb County police officer named Maurice Glenn Turner and began to pursue him.
Around the same time Lynn began an affair with Forsyth County firefighter Randy Thompson who was from Warner Robins, Georgia.
Thompson had reported feeling ill with flu symptoms and had gone to the emergency room complaining of a stomach ache and constant vomiting.
Crime scene photos from Glenn Turner's death contained a photograph of the garage where antifreeze was visible.
The state contended that she poisoned both men by placing the antifreeze in their food as it is odorless with a sweet taste.
[8] According to the Georgia Department of Corrections website, Turner was serving her sentences at Metro State Prison.
[10][11] An episode of Murder She Solved on the Oprah Winfrey Network claimed that she intentionally accumulated enough prescription medication to cause an overdose.
[12] On July 18, 2012, the ABC show Final Witness told the story from the perspective of her first husband, in an episode entitled Vixen's Elixir.
