‘Fatal Attraction’ Killer Carolyn Warmus To Be Released From Prison On Parole
NEW YORK, N.Y. (CBSNewYork) — Carolyn Warmus, the schoolteacher convicted of the 1989 murder of her lover’s wife in Greenburgh, will be released from prison on parole as early as June 10.
A media circus surrounded the Warmus case, later prompting two television movies and a book.
Initially her lover Paul Solomon was the prime suspect in the shooting of his wife Betty Jeanne in Scarsdale. His multiple affairs, a questionable life insurance policy, and a lucrative movie contract brought him under scrutiny.
There were also questions about a call for help that his wife made before dying.
“The caller shouted ‘he’s killing’ as opposed to ‘she’s killing me,” attorney Ben Gershman said.
Then, the tables turned.
“The whole thing was so surreal for me,” Warmus recalled.
Her second trial landed her in Bedford Hills — a maximum security prison.
In an exclusive interview with CBS2’s Mary Calvi in 2016, Warmus said if the trial was held today, she thought there would be a different outcome.
“First of all I don’t even know if there would have been an indictment because there are so many more scientific advances,” she said.
