Lethal Lovers : The True Story of Catherine Wood

 During the course of the trial, the jury listened to the story of Gwendolyn Graham and Catherine May Wood – young lesbian lovers who enhanced their sexual play by killing elderly patients at the nursing home where they worked. Together, the two women would smother their victims, and on more than one occasion, would make love while washing the bodies of their recently murdered patients.Wood and Graham met shortly after Graham moved from Texas to Michigan, where she took a job working with Wood at the Alpine Manor. The two women became fast friends, then lovers, by 1986 - and only two years later, they had been charged with the murders of five elderly patients.Marguerite Chambers, age 60; Myrtle Luce, age 95; Mae Mason, age 79; Belle Burkhard, age 74; and Edith Cook, age 97, all lost their lives at the hands of these lethal lovers.
