Premeditated or Self Defense? Murdered by His Ex - Nikola Turek

Episode 3

Human relationships are a cornerstone of society. And even though every single one of us gets to experience them, most of us are still fascinated by them. People have studied them, written literary masterpieces about them, tried capturing them in photographs… They go so far into our collective history that they are a part of holy books, and some of the earliest proofs of civilization on Earth.

But learning how to navigate them is something that defines maturity, and even then, the relationships that come with an extra dose of emotions - like romantic ones, can leave even the most experienced humans baffled.

How does love turn into hate? Where exactly is that proverbial thin line between lovers and strangers? And what compels people who loved each other to hurt each other?

I can’t promise that today’s episode will answer any of these questions, in fact, it could actually leave us with more questions, but today’s case is a tale as old as time. Lovers who became strangers, but couldn’t leave their relationship behind. Until one of them was dead.

Please join me as we explore the murder of Nikola Turek.
