This week on Cursewords and Crayons, we’re rounding out our festive episodes with a case that starts with a love affair and ends in a shallow grave: the heartbreaking murder of Sameena Imam.
Sameena was a bright, successful woman looking forward to a fresh start—holiday snacks in hand, hotel booked, expecting a proposal and a new beginning. What she got instead was a calculated betrayal by the man she trusted…and his equally awful brother.
🚩 Workplace affair? Check.
🚩 Star Wars-coded murder messages? Double check.
🚩 Chloroform, a fake text alibi, and a body buried in an allotment? Tragically, yes.
We’re walking through the full timeline of this awful case—from the missed red flags to the brothers’ deeply weird murder planning, and the investigators who thankfully got it done.
🎁 Show & Tell this week:
Zee’s mini-obsessed with 3D mini scenes—tiny, cozy crafting magic that lives somewhere between diamond painting and scrapbooking. Bonus: they fit in planners AND make great gifts. Amy’s linking some favs in the Amazon storefront if you’re ready to start your new hyperfixation.
So pour something warm, give your favorite people a big ol’ hug, and settle in for a case that’s infuriating, tragic, and weirdly festive in the worst possible way.
🕯️ As always, we center the victim—Sameena Imam deserved so much more than what she got.
