Unsolved Gwinnett Murder to Be Featured on 'America's Most Wanted'

The Lifetime channel show will feature the unsolved 2008 murder of Kay Wenal on Friday evening.

Who killed Eva "Kay" Wenal? Detectives have been trying to figure that out since she was murdered in 2008. And now they hope to get leads from a national television show.

"America's Most Wanted" will feature this cold case on their show Friday, Aug. 24 at 9 p.m. on Lifetime. It will air during an episode called “The Bold, The Bad and The Brazen.”

Wenal was murdered at her home on Sugar Lake Court, in unincorporated Lawrenceville on May 1, 2008. Her husband Harold “Hal” Wenal found his wife's body. Mr. Wenal was ruled out as a suspect before he died of natural causes in 2010.
