NJ ‘Suitcase killer’ Gets Renewed Look On ‘Forensic Files’

NEW JERSEY – A New Jersey fertility clinic nurse convicted of shooting her husband, cutting him into pieces and putting his remains into suitcases before tossing them into the water was reportedly scheduled to be featured on "Forensic Files" this weekend.

The episode was entitled “Human Sawdust” in the reboot of the popular crime and investigations docu-series, which was scheduled to air at 10 p.m. Sunday on HLN, according to mycentraljersey.com.

Melanie McGuire drugged, shot and dismembered William McGuire, 39, in their Woodbridge townhouse in April 2004, according to NJ Advance Media. She then stuffed his remains in three suitcases that she dumped in the Chesapeake Bay, according to the report.

McGuire killed her computer programmer husband so she could be with her lover, a doctor who worked with her at the fertility clinic in Morristown, according to NJ Advance Media. Her husband’s remains were discovered and she was arrested a year later.

She was convicted in 2007 of murder, disturbing and desecrating human remains, possession of a firearm and perjury, according to state records.
