The brother of her dead husband said to police: “My sister-in-law has told her family that she killed her husband, that she caught him sleeping with another woman, that she cleaned up the bullet cases and took care of the body.

But he then described Gambino as "moderately crazy, so we don’t know ... this isn't the first time she's made up stuff before."
