City Confidential Season 8 Episode 2 Macon: Spoonful of Arsenic
- 42 min
Anjette Lyles was a beloved Macon restaurateur, twice widowed, a mother--and almost the first white woman electrocuted in Georgia. In the 1950s, Macon was a sleepy little town, where doors remained unlocked and murder was rare. When Anjette Lyles was charged with poisoning two husbands, her mother-in-law, and 9-year-old daughter, Macon was thrust into national spotlight. And newspaper accounts spiced up the allegations with references to voodoo ceremonies and black magic.
