Stacey Castor (July 24, 1967 – June 11, 2016) was an American convicted murderer. In 2009, she was found guilty of intentionally poisoning her then-husband David Castor with antifreeze in 2005 and attempting to murder her daughter, Ashley Wallace, with crushed pills mixed in with vodka, orange juice, and Sprite in 2007. In addition, she is suspected of having murdered her first husband, Michael Wallace, in 2000; his grave lies next to David Castor's. The story made national news, and Castor was subsequently named The Black Widow by media outlets. A special two-hour edition of ABC's 20/20 aired on April 24, 2009, to provide the full story of the Castor case. Forensic Files had an episode "Freeze Framed" about this case.
