First Watch: Microsoft Dad’s Murder Case & Florida Sets 14th Execution of 2025

10 Oct 2025

Description

In Jacksonville Beach, Florida, the ambush murder of Microsoft software engineer and father of four Jared Bridegan is making headlines again. Prosecutors just released a massive batch of evidence: from police bodycam footage to 911 calls, ahead of the 2026 trial of his ex-wife Shanna Gardner and her husband Mario Fernandez. The case has gripped national attention, with the new release sparking even more questions. And across the state, Florida prepares for its 14th execution this year. Samuel Smithers, the so-called “Deacon of Death,” is scheduled to be put to death on October 14th. At 72, his lawyers are fighting to stop the execution, arguing it would be cruel and unusual punishment. Crime House Daily is a Crime House Original Podcast, powered by PAVE Studios.
