You guys!! This case is insane. Listen as Melissa tells Daniel details of a case that has rarely been covered by media outlets but has all the makings of a Lifetime movie. A woman is shot dead sitting in her own bed, found by her detective husband whose service weapon is lying next to her lifeless body. After investigators leave the scene questions finally begin to be asked. But were the doubts about the relationship and questions concerning the murder too little too late? Was this a case of an accidental shooting? Maybe a suicide? Or was this the final betrayal by a spouse who was never really "all in" on the marriage? Stay tuned for part 2. Case begins at 9:35 Support the Show.

In 2009, a gunshot was heard in a heavily wooded area in Starkville Mississippi, followed by someone yelling out, "Oh my God". When a body was found at the edge of a tree lined clearing, it did not take investigators long to track down their one and only suspect. But was the murderer the person who was eventually locked behind bars or would the defense prove the killing was done by someone else close to the victim? Someone who was not on trial? Listen and find out as Melissa tells Daniel the ends and outs of another case that is rarely talked about but asks the question, when you say amicable does it really mean amicable until there's a life insurance policy?

The MacArthur’s are giving you a sneak peak into their newest spin-off show called “To Have and To Kill” normally only available to Patreon subscribers (feel free to attack our character and our desire to formulate a little bit of an income). In this show Melissa tells Daniel cases of couples who murder… together. Episode 3 is that of the case of “The Lonely Hearts Killers” Raymond Fernandez and Martha Beck. This case is wild! Since this is a Patreon spinoff we do not hold back as much so if we tend to “frustrate” you with our logical opinions on the facts of a case then you should probably move on. We are not changing for anybody. Call it our “Generation X” mentality or just plain stubbornness. You’ve been warned! Support the Show.
