following you. it seems like someone playing a game. that whole plan was designed for him to die tonight, new first-ever interviews. he was murdered! i ve held my silence for 15 years. inside the riveting story dateline s covered from the start. there s a frozen body. it s in a freezer in the garage. we have three different deaths. how are they related? i m thinking wow, she could really be the mastermind of this. evil and death and greed. it s not a script. it s not make believe. how horrible can you be? may they burn in hell. chilling. compelling. too twisted to be true. except that it is. what a pretty late summer
