First Watch: Woman Says Her High Heels Led to Death of Joe McMullins  
Podcast: Crime House 24/7

Description: A summer night of drinking in small-town Kentucky ended with 38-year-old Amber Spradlin sitting dead on a basement couch, her throat slashed, blood scrubbed from sinks and drains, and the home’s security system mysteriously destroyed, leaving a dentist, his son, and their friend now facing charges in a case built on missing footage and slow-moving DNA results. Hours and states away, Katie investigates a late-night first date in Houston that ended just as brutally, when a Porsche took a dark curve too fast and sent 33-year-old Joe McMullins flying thirty feet outside a donut shop. His killer was found to have four times the legal limit of alcohol in her system. Kristina Chambers said her Christian Louboutin heels caused her to lose control, but did the jury buy it?
