missing. in her place, her trail of blood. my biggest fear was that we were going to find her. police found instead was a puzzle. and then in my 28 years i have not seen that before. a missing woman. a mystery with few clues. did you find any parting the prints? hairs? anything? but that one men have a motive? he steals $300, 000, and you re about to be exposed for it. with except without proof, how could anyone trust the jury? do you think that they had any evidence against you at all? did they have anything? could anyone solve the mystery? we the jury, find the defendant, david ok. hello, and welcome to dateline. when someone goes missing, one of the hardest things for those left behind is not knowing the truth. was it voluntary, or foul play? the three children in this story arrived home one evening to discover that their mother was missing, but for them, the truth about what really happened may have been the hardest thing of all. here is ke
and i told them you are not going to believe what i just heard. the startling news came from their sisters friend. she just kept insisting promise me you ll get a full autopsy. the brothers kept it a secret. we wouldn t tell the parent, we wouldn t tell my sister diana, we wouldn t tell anybody. it was information about a family member they loved with what they point the guilty finger? there was no way we were going to accuse them. hello and welcome to dateline. thousands of americans are killed in car accidents every year. but, when a mother of two died after a minor fender bender. her loved ones were left shaking their heads and looking for some answers. the more they learned the more it seemed it wasn t her accident that needed investigating. it was her marriage. here is dennis murphy with bitter pill. so ironic that rosie essa was just idling a few days the afternoon when she had only a few precious minutes remaining. but we never know, do we? it was f
they seemed like the ultimate power couple. she told me, should be traveling on secret missions. he had all of the medals. the silver star, the purple heart. glamorous military careers, but, was it all camouflage? says the bs alarms are going off in my head like you wouldn t believe. did they have something to hide? we start doing surveillance. maybe a crime here? yes. something that made me say, this campeche. we were in disbelief. what happened to her last husband? whoever did this was evil. the hurt, the anger. it makes you question everybody. it seems alive, somehow, here in the foothills of tennessee s appalachians. the creeping tendrils of mountain mist that snake and swirl. like lies. there is gold in there, somewhere, so they say. the sort of place where you could strike it rich, or maybe get away with murder. very scary. shocking. and devastating. so, after that mysterious death here, who can anyone trust? dearest friends? the word bet
