Alicia Lofton was a mother, a homeowner, and a woman who believed she’d finally found the kind of love worth building a life around.
But behind the matching outfits, the inside jokes, and the online “couple goals” façade… cracks were forming.
And on August 17th, 2023, those cracks turned deadly.
In this episode, we break down the unraveling of Alicia and Marcus Lofton’s six-month marriage, the secret she reportedly uncovered, and the violent morning that ended with at least fifteen shots and a shattered window.
This is a case about image, exposure, and the truth someone was willing to kill to keep hidden.
