Annette Marie Valdez and the Warning Signs That Went Unheeded [Current Affairs]

This week on Love Murder Current Affairs, the episode begins with an update in the killing of former Miss Switzerland finalist Kristina Joksimovic, as Swiss prosecutors formally charge her husband with murder and detail evidence of strangulation and prior abuse. The focus then shifts to Colorado, where Thomas Perales has been charged with first-degree murder in the death of Annette Marie Valdez, a mother of three whose body was found in a trash can after repeated domestic violence calls to her apartment. The episode also examines a UK case in which Andrew Georgiou has pleaded guilty to murdering his wife by drowning her in their backyard hot tub.
