He was a young Marine, handsome in his dress blues.
He had a religious aspect to him.
“She was a free spirit who didn't care about convention.”
I'm a hippie, I'm a deadhead. They married and made a life together. And then one night, the Marine died. I don't want you to listen. I don't want you to listen.
What happens?
You can swear if you like that and couldn't really cry.
Drums rolled, gun saluted, and a flag was folded for the widow. All of it by the book, solemn, dignified, appropriate, and then something happened. The widow went off script. She started having a lot of parties shortly after his funeral. A lot of the neighbors were just like, she got over that pretty quickly.
With her husband's insurance money, the widow lived it up, new bling, new lovers, new look.
This case started because of the breast implants.
Think about it.
“If she had a nose jaw, would we even be talking about it?”
I browse arched, tongues whacked, and an investigation was born. Ernest's found arsenic in the Marine's tissues, and his widow was accused of murder. And we need to try to pursue justice for this young Marine and his family. Our latest podcast takes us to San Diego, where an untimely death and some unseemly behavior added up to a murder rap.
What am I being arrested for? Like a toldy yesterday, there was some phone substance that was found in his body. So you tried me with the marker? Oh my gosh. Are you serious?
Yes.
“It's a story about investigators in dog and pursuit of a theory.”
I told them they might want to get the stuff retested and find out what's going on. It's about prosecutors hell bent on winning and about what happens when the wheels of justice go off the rails. I was over a million. My mom sold her house, cash in, all of their retirements, all their everything.
It shouldn't be a game. It shouldn't be a situation where let's see what we can get away with. And that's what happened in this case.
