This past Wednesday, April 29th, Netflix debuted Should I Marry a Murderer?, a three-part docuseries with a story from Scotland that is genuinely stranger than fiction. In a short span of time, the series and its central subject, Dr. Caroline Muirhead, have already captivated the Internet. So, what’s the story behind it?
Muirhead, a forensic pathologist, met Alexander “Sandy” McKellar, a farmer and deer-stalker, through the dating app Tinder in 2020. They officially began a relationship that September, and after five weeks of a whirlwind romance, they were engaged the following November. After saying yes to McKellar’s proposal, Muirhead asked if there were any proverbial skeletons in his closet that could impact the two of them.
