PLAYING WITH FIRE by John Glatt

September 2, 2010

Shelly Michaels is an intriguing woman. When I read this book, I was left wondering if she really murdered Jimmy or not. Why, because she never admitted it. She still says she didn't do it. I just can't understand how someone can continue to deny guilt, if they did it. But considering that I have been involved in the legal profession for 15 years, I certainly know they do. Still, it always leaves some doubt in my mind.

According to the book, Shelly persued Jimmy, who was a married man, until he left his wife and two children. And she left her husband, with whom she had two children with. They married and combined their families. Shelly is portraid as being unfair and over-bearing to Jimmy's son, Drew. Drew seemed to never care for Shelly so she probably was mean to him.

This case took place in Morgantown, WV. The murder of Jimmy Michael happened on November 28, 2005.

Michelle Michael (Shelly) didn't seem to be liked by a lot of people. Many described her as cold.

It is so sad when someone looses their life at the hands of someone they love and trust. It's so unfair. But then, life is NOT fair.
