An episode of Killer Relationships with Faith Jenkins is soon to be released featuring Amber Smith, a woman involved in the death of her fiancé, Trenton Mallory. It will show the murder of Mallory in 2014 and Smith's involvement in this case.

Amber Smith was arrested after her fiancé, Trenton Mallory, was found dead inside his Levering, Michigan home, on March 6, 2014. He'd been shot with a .22 caliber rifle once in the head. At first, Smith told police that someone had broken into their house, but officers became suspicious of her story quickly. The case was finally brought to closure when Smith was convicted and imprisoned for life.

Amber Smith has been serving her life sentence since her conviction. The episode "Ice Cold Killer" of Killer Relationship with Faith Jenkins is set to air on Saturday, November 9, 2024, at 8/7c on Oxygen.


The murder of Trenton Mallory

Amber Smith and Trenton Mallory were under huge economic stress. Smith had debt in gambling, and money was barely coming in. As a result, the couple nearly witnessed the foreclosure of their house.

On March 6, 2014, Amber Smith claimed that her home had been burglarized. However, when the police arrived at the house, they found Mallory dead and the whole house was looted. The more the case was dug into, evidence pointed straight to Smith.

Evidence revealed that she owned a murder weapon, the .22 caliber rifle, and she had hidden it near her sister's house. Her initial statements to the police had many loopholes and hence increased suspicion.

As the trial continued, Smith's motives became more defined. Prosecutors alleged that she killed Mallory because she did not want to be associated with many debts he had taken. It appeared that Smith had planned the murder of Mallory and arranged the scene to show that it was a robbery gone wrong.


The trial and conviction

Amber Smith was arrested and charged with first-degree murder. The defense claimed that she did not commit the murder, but a mountain of evidence against her indicated otherwise.

The jury found her guilty and sentenced her to life in prison with no chance of parole. The case shocked those who knew the couple. People in Trenton Mallory's life described him as a loving person. News of his death threw many in his family into a state of shock. His parents were especially vocal during the trial, saying that they were at a loss as to how a person who claimed to love him could kill him.


Amber Smith’s life after the trial

Smith has been serving her life term since her conviction. She has attempted appeals against the verdict, but none were accepted as the evidence against her is considered clear and convincing.


The episode of Killer Relationship with Faith Jenkins featuring the murder of Trent Mallory will premiere on Saturday, November 9, 2024, at 8/7c on Oxygen.
