Why Anthony Darrell Hines Is Being Executed | The Murder of Catherine Jenkins
Join us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/hauntedcitypodcast We're back. Season two of From One To Wicked opens on a case with a clock running on it. On March 3, 1985, 54-year-old Catherine Jenkins, a grandmother, a maid, the woman in her small Tennessee town who'd drive you to your doctor's appointment - was left in charge of the Seabon Motel in Kingston Springs for one afternoon. She was found hours later in room 21, robbed, raped, and stabbed to death, with a $20 bill tucked under the band of her watch. Anthony Darrell Hines had checked into room 9 that morning. Days earlier, he'd told his girlfriend's mother why he carried a hunting knife under his shirt: "I never go anywhere naked. I always have my blade." By that afternoon he was on the interstate in Catherine's Volvo with dried blood on his shirt and a story that changed every time he told it. Madison walks JT through the stab marks in the motel wall, the confession Hines offered only if the state would guarantee him execution — then retracted when they said yes — and the affair-shaped red herring that had the Sixth Circuit rethinking the whole case 35 years later. Anthony Hines is scheduled to be executed Thursday, August 13, 2026. Catherine's daughter Melissa has spent her entire adult life waiting for it. New episodes multiple times a month.
