A 76-year-old grandmother is facing a murder probe into the deaths of her five ex-husbands after she was charged with hiring a hit man to gun down one of them in cold blood.

It was only when detectives arrested white-haired Betty Neumar that they realized that all five of her marriages had ended in tragedy.

Not one, not two, but three of her husbands were shot and the other two died in mysterious circumstances - one of them showing symptoms of possible arsenic poisoning.
