Was Betty Wilson found guilty of her husband Dr. Jack Wilson’s murder?

Betty Wilson was indeed found guilty of the murder of her husband Dr. Jack Wilson. However, she was not the only one to be arrested in the case. Along with Betty, her twin sister Peggy Lowe was also apprehended in charge of contract slaying.

Even though Peggy got out after paying a bail of $300,000 bail, Betty did not manage to escape the law. According to Forensic Files Now, the twin sisters paid a man named James White to kill Jack Wilson.

James and Peggy had known each other for a long time. They used to talk regularly on the telephone and she eventually offered him $5,000 to kill Jack. On the day of the murder, James hid in Jack’s house and as soon as the target arrived, he beat him several times with a metal baseball bat and even stabbed him twice.

Betty Wilson is currently in Julia Tutwiler Prison. In 2006 she married a man named Bill Campbell.
