Woman Charged With Murdering Her Boyfriend - 7 Hours Before Their Wedding


A woman was charged with murder early Saturday morning, just a few hours before she was supposed to get married to the man she murdered. Na Cola Darcel Franklin and her soon to be husband were at their house the night before the wedding. They got into a fight and Na stabbed her boyfriend with a knife twice. One of the wounds punctured his heart and killed him. The couple was not alone in the apartment. There were friends and family and the couple's children. In front of a judge at her arraignment, Na said she wanted to go home and the judge said she would not be going home for a very very long time. Apparently Na still could not believe she actually killed her boyfriend and the father of her kids and told the judge "I ... did ... not ... kill ... him ... on ... purpose."

This should be on the ID channel's Happy Never After. There was a story like this except the groom killed the bride on her wedding night. She was still in her dress.

I'm going to ignore this and instead think about the man who takes his dog out into the water so the dog can sleep.

I think Na Cola had too much caffeine.

EmEyeKay, agree.

"I told you the cumberbund pleats face up, not down!"

Seriously, how messed up is she?

Rose said...

Na Cola, on purpose or not, he's still dead. It might make a difference to a jury, but it won't to their kids.

timebob said...

Eveyln Lozado take note of this story.

Agree with Em, that picture of the dog and his owner is just serene.

Unknown said...

At least he found out about before the wedding. But in all seriousness that is pretty awful.

Sherry said...

Wow, how mad do you have to be to pick up a knife and plunge it into your fiance? That's some messed up stuff.

This story just came on my local news, so so sad for those 4 children that were present in the apartment. I don't like that type of crazy in my state :(

Sarah said...

What the hell kind of ame is Na Cola? Is that a play on Nicola? Sorry, that's where my mind went.

nancer said...

you stab someone in the chest, you have to know there's a good chance you'll kill them.

a non a miss said...

On the news they pronounced it as "Nicola" but who knows.

hunter said...

I didn't kill him on purpose - just wanted to have some stabby times you know? Just for funz.

Colleen said...

That picture of the dog in the water with his owner last week actually made me cry. That's love right there.

libby said...

nancer--ITA, and it's pretty hard to stab someone in the chest, as opposed to rib-free areas with less protection, like the abdomen or whatever. Probably why there were two stabbings here---she hit a rib the first time, then adjusted her aim. That would PROVE to me she intended for him to die. JMO.
If she had stabbed him in the gut, I could imagine 'I didn't intend' would be a better defense.

I read about this yesterday. Sad for their kids.

I don't believe I have ever heard the name Na Cola before.

Robert said...

This reminds me of Paige Parkerson of Beaumont, Texas, who stabbed her boyfriend to death on Mother's Day this year in an argument over an insufficiently impressive gift. Her Facebook page states: "%if looks could kill i would be da murder of all my haters%" Apparently not just her haters (bad, I know.)

Having the name Na Cola should have been the crime. If she had been jailed for that crime her children would still have a father.

cece said...

You obviously don't live in the South.

jaariel said...

Lol Hunter-- stubby timez !

jaariel said...

Stabby!!!

Anonymous said...

See, this is why the groom isn't supposed to see the bride before the wedding!

Seriously though, Na Cola Darcel? WTF kind of name is that?

Saja said...

Omg wtf she has taken being a bridezilla to another whole level

Sandy said...

"Nah, the knife was just there and it going into his chest was just an accident, your honor! Now can I go home?" Delusional.

auntliddy said...

Agree, good thought.

KPeony said...

She should have waited a few hours! Maybe he had awesome life insurance! She would have at least been entitled to his assets. She obviously didn't think this through.

Kidding of course. Those poor kids :(

djphob said...

It is driving me insane that it says boyfriend. It's her fiancee if they were about to be married! I thought it was going to be some tangled story about her killing her side piece before the wedding or something. Fresh start, you know.

Not A Ninny said...

If she'd only stabbed him once she might have gotten off with a light involuntary manslaughter pop. Stabby or shooty once, that's an "oops". Stabby again, that's intent to kill.

astrogirl said...

That what I was thinking. It's hardly accidental when you come back for a second jab.

Henriette said...

I thought they were married a couple of hours already.

Sad for the kids....her mugshot is pretty smug btw.

Another one for the warehouse. Hope she doesn't get out ever. Those poor kids. Let's hope they had some good genetics from the sperm donor.
