In the 1960's, she and her plastic surgeon husband, Dr. John Hill, were at the top of Houston society.Before they were the center of one of the strangest murder mysteries in Houston history, they were a glamorous couple at the top of Houston society.
Joan and Virginia often competed in the same horse show circuits. Virginia, just a teenager at the time, remembers looking up to Joan. The horsewoman and her surgeon husband lived an exquisite mansion on Kirby, just before the street curves toward downtown Houston. In its heyday, it was the scene for parties and musical evenings. John was an avid musician, and built an extraordinary music on the second floor of the house. For a few years, it looked like perfection.
"No, not at the time. We just thought it was normal. That she had had some great tragedy, some kind of stomach problem, because that's what Dr. Hill said." A key prosecutorial theory was that the surgeon poisoned his wife using chocolate eclairs laced with deadly bacteria. Some believed he grew the bacteria in the home of his mistress, Anne Kurth. It was a blockbuster case that captivated Houston. It would end in a dramatic mistrial.
