In season 7, episode 7 the murder of her husband, attorney Jimmy Grund by Susan Grund is shown. This murder occurred in the state of Indiana. Oxygen describes this episode of Snapped as Susan Grund, a mother of two, is accused of shooting her husband, attorney Jimmy Grund, in the couple's Peru, Indiana home in August 1992In the spring and summer of 1992, Susan and Jim Grund were experiencing marital problems. They were arguing frequently, and they were seeing a marriage counselor. Although there was some talk of divorce, this was not what Susan wanted. Because her husband was a prominent attorney, she feared losing custody of the children, and she feared losing Jim’s financial support. Thus, Susan needed an alternative solution.
On the afternoon of July 4, 1992, Susan arrived unexpectedly at the home of David Grund, the victim’s son by a previous marriage. She had been at the county fairgrounds, and as she returned home, she stopped in, claiming to have found a new shortcut home from the fairgrounds. Defendant questioned David about a handgun that he had recently purchased. David showed her where he kept his 9 mm semi-automatic weapon, and allowed her to handle it. Before leaving, defendant noticed that the storm door was broken and was secured by a shoestring. Defendant also inquired about where David and his girlfriend, Suzane, kept their rottweiler puppy when no one was at home.
Around 2:00 p.m. that day, David and Suzane attended a barbecue at the home of Suzane’s parents. Defendant and her husband, along with their two children, thirteen-year-old Jacob and seven-year-old Tanelle, arrived around 4:00 p.m. and stayed until around 6:00 p.m. Shortly before dark, defendant telephoned Suzane’s parents to find out if David and Suzane planned to attend the fireworks display. She was told that David was not feeling well, so they would be staying at Suzane’s parents’ home for a while longer, then they would return home. When David and Suzane arrived home around 10:30 p.m., they found that their home had been burglarized. Although cash and jewelry were in plain sight, the only thing missing was David’s gun.
Susan Grund was convicted and sentenced to 60 years in prison in April 1994.
