124: Michaela McAreavey: Mauritius Island

Michaela McAreavey had just married the love of her life. The ceremony was beautiful — joyful, hopeful, everything a wedding should be.
Just days later, she and her husband John flew to Mauritius for their honeymoon. White sand. Turquoise water. A luxury resort built for romance. Paradise.
But twelve days after saying “I do,” on January 10, 2011, Michaela was found murdered in her hotel room at the Legends Hotel in Grand Gaube. She was 27 years old. No one has ever been convicted. How does a honeymoon in paradise become an unsolved murder?
Listen as we dive into Mauritius Island, the case of Michaela McAreavey, and how to stay alive on vacation.
