Love stories twisted by rage, passion soured by obsession, and joy ravaged by paranoia – Investigation Discovery’s (ID) new series ‘TIL DEATH DO US PART follows lovers as they embark on relationships that end with a destiny no one expected. The new series shows that murder, like true love, is written in the stars. From a suspicious carbon monoxide incident, to a parrot who became an eyewitness to murder, each hour-long episode tells a tragic tale of love turned lethal. Premiering Tuesday, July 9 at 10/9c on ID, the new series features all-new stories of love gone wrong, including a loving wife turned wiccan, a spouse with a spiraling gambling addiction, and a motorcycle accident that is not what it seems. Illustrated through split-screen archive and originally-shot material, including interviews with family, friends, law enforcement and the potential victim of the crime, ‘TIL DEATH DO US PART unveils the breaking point in each of these relationships when love and murder collide.
In the premiere episode, Marty and Glenna Duram finally get married after nearly twenty years apart. It was love at first sight for Marty when he met Glenna as a teenager in Newaygo County, MI; but after dating for a short while, the young couple split up and eventually married other people. Years later, Marty and Glenna reconnect and think their life together is finally meant to be. When the now middle-aged couple is found shot in their own home, the case reveals a bizarre story of drugs, stolen money and a pet parrot who becomes an eyewitness.
