GIFFORD — Cold Justice, a true crime series on the Oxygen Network, will re-examine the 1999 fatal shooting of a grandmother described as a quiet, God-fearing woman who cherished her family. The episode called “Cold Justice uncovers damning detail in murder of Florida grandmother” will air at 8 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 11.
Stephanie Jackson, 48, was shot several times in the living room of her Gifford home on Sept. 3, 1999. The woman’s daughter discovered her body lying on a chair. A pillow with three bullet holes covered Stephanie Jackson’s face.
