A Crime of Passion: The Clara Harris Story

from Moms and Mysteries: A True Crime Podcast · host Moms and Mysteries Podcast

Clara Harris, a successful dentist, seemed to have it all: a thriving practice, a beautiful home, and a loving husband, David, who was also her business partner. But their perfect life shattered when Clara discovered David was having an affair with his receptionist. Determined to catch him in the act, Clara hired a private investigator to follow him. What she uncovered sent her into a spiral of rage and despair. On a fateful evening in July 2002, Clara confronted David and his mistress in a hotel lobby. The confrontation spilled out into the parking lot, where, in a fit of jealous rage, Clara ran over her husband with her Mercedes-Benz—not once, but multiple times. The entire horrific event was caught on tape by the private investigator she had hired. This week, we delve into the shocking case of Clara Harris, a woman who went from a respected professional to a convicted killer in a single night. It’s a tragic story of love, betrayal, and a crime of passion that became a national spectacle. #truecrime #truecrimepodcast #momsandmysteries #claraharris #davidharris #crimeofpassion #texascrime #dateline #fatalattraction New episodes every Tuesday and Thursday!
