85. Sounds Like The Cops Don't Trust Us - The Closed (Minded) Search For Peter Chadwick

By all appearances, Peter Chadwick is a pretty rotten human.  A millionaire British ex-pat living in an exclusive Southern California enclave with his wife and three sons, he suddenly disappears, along with his bride, one day in October 2012.  Early the next morning 911 operators some 100 miles away in San Diego get a call from Chadwick, who claims his wife had been killed the previous day, and that he'd been...well...kidnapped...or something...by the killers.  Let's just say the police didn't buy any of it, and just a few days later when his wife's body was found (under astounding circumstances), he was charged with First Degree Murder.  Flash forward two-plus years later when, out on bail and on the eve of trial, Chadwick takes a powder.  And no one has been able to find him.  Anywhere.  But it gets worse - and possibly much worse.  In this episode Melissa shares not just the frustration - but the outrage - of how the police have completely controlled the information on the case while blocking access to the general public that might allow concerned citizens help catch Peter Chadwick - and for no apparent reason other than they simply don't trust the citizens they've been sworn to serve.  Buckle up - Melissa is more than just a little worked up about this - and you will be too.
