About this episode

The episode discusses the trial of Christopher Wolfenbarger, accused of murdering his wife Melissa Wolfenbarger, amidst emerging evidence of another suspect.

In April 1999, the body of 21-year-old Melissa Wolfenbarger was found. With most signs pointing to her husband as the killer, Christopher Wolfenbarger went on trial decades later.
