Anna Benson Was Previously Charged With Murder - On America's Most Wanted

If you are thinking about marrying someone, would you marry them if they had been charged with murder? Would you marry them if they had been a feature on America's Most Wanted? I would have to answer no to both of them unless they were a bacon heiress. Then, I would have to think about it and do some sort of calculation about the value of my life and how much bacon I could eat before I got whacked. Anna Benson, who is still married to former pro baseball player Kris Benson and was once on Baseball Wives was previously arrested for murder after some guy was found dead in her house. Police searched nationwide for her and her boyfriend at the time and were located after being featured on America's Most Wanted. Her boyfriend was eventually convicted of first degree murder which was overturned. He then was convicted of second degree murder and died in jail. Prosecutors could never prove Anna was involved in the murder so dropped the murder charges and eventually dropped accessory charges too and she was free to go and enter the life of Kris Benson. At the time of the man hunt, Anna was about 17 or 18 years old. Anna is currently in jail for trying to rob her husband of $30K while wearing a bulletproof vest and holding a gun on her soon to be ex.

She also said (which got a lot of publicity) that if she ever caught him cheating, she'd sleep with the whole team. Classy!

This is what happens when you marry a gorgeous woman who's totally NUTS.

Kris Benson is so lucky that he didn't end up like poor Phil Hartman.

Bummer that Kris couldn't get it together enough when the Phillies signed him for them to bring him up. She would have been fun in Philadelphia.

Some men don't mind a little crazy in their women if she's pretty.

You go on with your bad self, Anna!

Wow, sociopath and thankfully could be facing a long time in prison. Attempted armed robbery is a serious crime.

As someone on Deadspin (who broke the story) said, "Anna was originally charged with a hit, but it was later ruled an error."

Another article said they found the victim's body in her apartment, the walls of which were covered in satanic symbols and imagery.
She disappeared with her boyfriend. When they were found, there wasn't enough evidence to convict her.

Is being gangsta still a compliment? She seems like the real deal. She's like a young version of Tony Soprano's mom.
