Greed, Gold, and the Death of Kirby Carpenter

In this episode of She Investigates, we examine the murder of Mississippi businessman Kirby Carpenter, whose success in gold and silver trading may have made him a target. After his body was found outside his home in 2022, police eventually charged his girlfriend Caitlin Spence and her parents with murder and conspiracy. We explore the twisted family dynamics, the missing precious metals, and new 2025 updates—including Caitlin’s plea deal and testimony against her parents.
