Convicted murderer Linda Henning is the focus of an upcoming episode of the Oxygen Network's program "Snapped."

"Snapped" producer Elizabeth Gibson tells me that the Henning episode is now scheduled to air April 13, 2008. The episode previously had been scheduled to air April 6, 2008.

Among the people interviewed for Snapped's Henning episode:

• Steve Zachary, Henning's former boyriend and longtime friend
• Felissa Garcia Kelley, Diazien Hossencofft's divorce attorney. She's also reportedly writing a trilogy about the case
• "Pamela Hutton" (an alias used in September Sacrifice), member of two doll clubs also attended by Henning
• Dave Pfeffer, private investigator hired by Henning's attorney
• Mark Horner, author of September Sacrifice
• Joline Gutierrez Krueger, reporter for Albuquerque Tribune

Court upholds woman's conviction for murder of Girly Chew Hossencofft

SANTA FE (AP) - The state Supreme Court has upheld the murder and kidnapping convictions of a woman for killing her ex-boyfriend's wife, whose body has never been found.

Linda Henning was sentenced to life in

prison for murdering Girly Chew Hossencofft, who disappeared in September 1999.

The Supreme Court, in an unanimous ruling issued Tuesday, overturned Henning's convictions on four counts of perjury but affirmed all other convictions, including felony murder, kidnapping, conspiracy to kidnap and tampering with evidence.

A jury convicted Henning in 2003, but spared her the death penalty. She was sentenced to life plus 43 1/2 years in prison.

Girly's husband, Diazien Hossencofft, was sentenced to a life prison term for her murder. He pleaded guilty in January 2002.

The Malaysian-born victim was reported missing by co-workers at an Albuquerque bank where she had worked as a teller. She had told co-workers that she was involved in a bitter separation from her husband and that if she did not show up for work, they should expect the worst.
