Episode 277: The Indonesian Girl That Killed Her Best Friend With Poisoned Coffee Because Of Jealousy

---

In an upscale cafe in Jakarta - 3 women were sitting in a booth. Jessica, Hani, and Mirna had been friends since college and decided to reunite to catch up.

One had gotten married and was ready to start her own family.

Another had just landed a new job.

Another was going to live full-time in Australia with her boyfriend.

And by the end of the coffee date - one would be dead in the booth. The culprit? A strange yellow-colored coffee sitting at the table.

Was the coffee tainted? Was she deliberately poisoned? Who were the suspects, her best friends from college?
