One of the most extraordinary cases. A murder just months after her wedding. She gave me a big smile and i remembered that smile for years. All the time the killer was hiding in plain sight. No indication she was ever spoken to . No. And then a new detective took a look at an old lead. He said its a match. A person no one would have ever suspected of murder. We were going to end this. Was suddenly suspect Number One. Perfect murder. Almost. Hello and welcome to dateline. She was found murdered and what happened to her remained a nightmare. But when detectives reopened the case, they discovered it wasnt a burglar, but a suspect that led to their own front door with the Smoking Gun. Arriving before dawn at the police departments police station. I was tired. Reporter he hosted a super Bowl Party the night before, and the beer flowed freely. That is a good way of spending the day, getting caught up on my reading with a couple of aspirins, maybe. Reporter he reached for a file that had been

When i m not at school, i probably use it, like, a lot. Like, most of the day. She scrolls through dozens of videos an hour and chats to friends and family around the country. Sometimes, i stay up all night, maybe until about, like, 5am, watching tiktok or playing games or watching netflix or anything like that. I just scroll and scroll and scroll. It s terrible. Sometimes, i ll go to my sister s and the family will meet there and she ll just go upstairs and be on her phone. And that s the time when i feel like i would like her tojust put the phone down and have her family time. Many of us are obsessed with our smartphones but what s the impact on our kids? from looking at keah and josh s social media feeds, they re not seeing anything that s too bad.

But is a ban really the answer . I dont think we should expect kids to use their phone less, because were not. Were not. Im not. Youre not. I dont think anyone is. On the outskirts of birmingham, 14 year old josh says he can spend up to ten hours a day on his smartphone. He messages his friends and scrolls through hundreds of tiktok videos. Its pretty much like my best friend. Like, i use it every single day. I always have to have it next to me because, like, i wont get scared that im being like, left out, or something. During the week, Joshs Mum makes him leave his smartphone downstairs at night. But at the weekend its a different story. I, like, watch My Phone throughout the night. My phone would be, like, constantly going off, which will wake me up, and then ill have to check it, just to see if im, like, missing anything important. Normally at four in the morning its not that important. Hes very tired the next day. Because hes been up all night and hes not had enough sleep. Sometime

Don t think of them. The pain becomes a part of you. Get everybody out here to my house now. He came home and found her, his entire family gone. I said what are you talking about, what are you saying? it was surreal. As fellow cops suspected him. I did not do this. I did not do this. She was upset. She felt like history is repeating itself. Or police just plain wrong? it s like a twilight zone. Lies become truth and the truth becomes lies. May be the real killer was still out there. You have lied to the police about this case. So devastating. We know that was probably the key to solving this. 13 years of hell. Such an awful crime. The wife, the little boy and girl, shot at pointblank range. I was dumbfounded with shock. How to comprehend it? i said what, wait, what are you talking about, what are you saying? the husband had an alibi.
