Deadly Deception: Judith Nix Shoots Ex-Husband, Stages Scene as Suicide
Judith Nix convicted for ex-husband’s staged death
On March 21, 2016, just after 9 PM, Judith Nix in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, called 911, saying that she found her ex-husband dead in his room and that it looked like he had killed himself.
Police would arrive at what they believed to be a suicide. Judith would direct them to the master bedroom, but it would quickly become evident that the suicide had been staged.
The victim was sixty-nine-year-old Kenneth Nix, who was born in 1946 in Louisiana, the oldest of six children. In 1966, he married for the first time. He and his first wife had three children and moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma. Ultimately, the couple would separate, and shortly after the separation, his first wife committed suicide while on the phone with Ken.
Ken married three more times after that. Hoping to find a good mother figure for his three young kids.
He met Judith in 1984; Judith was divorced and was working as an accountant with two teenage daughters. She had been married once before in the 60s, but it had ended quickly after she had her daughters. She was originally from Texas before moving to Tulsa.
