192: Operation Custody: The Murder of Selma "Sally" Hill

About this episode

The episode discusses the murder of 81-year-old Selma 'Sally' Hill, discovered during a welfare check by a family friend.

After a long day of work, Eric Hill arrived home to find a family friend waiting outside his door, hoping to check on Eric's grandmother, 81-year-old Selma Hill. The welfare check seemed routine enough...that is until they entered the home and realized they'd stepped into a made-for-TV murder plot.
