"Fighting the Devil"
A True Story of Consuming Passion, Deadly Poison, and Murder
Listen to Jeannie Walker Radio Interview
A lot of people said, "This story needs to be told."
Jeannie Walker - "I wrote "Fighting the Devil" to speak for my millionaire ex-husband, who no longer has a voice. He was murdered in an unthinkable and horrendous way. I am the mother of his only children. We are now Crime Victims in a Criminal Justice System that does not always work for the victims. For a long time I have felt the "presence" of my ex-husband, who cannot rest in peace. I am writing the words to tell you the blood-curdling details of his murder and the search for justice afterwards. I am writing to tell you how I and law enforcement struggled and fought against the devil's wrath. Recollections, observations, police records, court transcripts, news articles, medical reports, and memories of lives touched are all dimensions to this story. It is a story about a family forced to endure more than any family should have to endure, along with the trials and tribulations I lived through. No one could have predicted the aftermath with its strange twists and unexpected results.
Jerry Sternadel was a Texas Millionaire rancher and my ex-husband. I am the mother of his only children. I am now and forever speaking for him.
There was a time when he was a person everyone loved and enjoyed being around him. When he and I met, it was love at first sight for him. But for me, falling in love took a little longer.
Some thought we had a perfect life. We were proud parents of a son and a daughter, had our own business, and were wealthy. That all changed when the devil turned our world upside down. My husband had started out good and went bad. He became a person consumed with lust for power and sinful ways. After our divorce, he sealed his fate when he married his second wife and hired her good friend as his bookkeeper.
