SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — Betty Broderick, one of San Diego's most notorious killers, died Friday morning from natural causes, according to the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.
She was 78 years old.
The La Jolla socialite was serving a 32-year sentence for the 1989 murders of her ex-husband, prominent local attorney Dan Broderick, and his new wife. Broderick snuck into the couple's home and shot them as they slept.
Broderick was denied parole several times before her death.
