During the trial, Candy insisted that she murdered Betty out of self-defense. The strange thing? Candy got away with it, the judge finding her not guilty. After the trial, she and her husband Pat Montgomery moved to Georgia. As you can imagine, they later divorced.
According to the UK’s Daily Mail, Candy now goes by the name of Candace Wheeler and works as a therapy provider for teens and adults.
Hulu’s Candy offers a sepia-toned rendering of the horrific tale. Starring Jessica Biel and Melanie Lynskey in the roles of Candy and Betty respectively, the series takes a new look at the incident more than 40 years later. Candy premieres on May 9, 2022, with Michael Uppendahl directing. The Mad Men and American Horror Story director told Distractify how he tackled the true crime series.
