Buried Secrets and Cold Justice [Current Affairs]

from LOVE MURDER

In 2003, the gruesome discovery of a pair of severed legs in a California dumpster marked the start of a two-decade mystery. Laurie Diane Potter vanished, her husband claiming she'd simply chosen a new life. For 17 years, Jack Potter concealed his crime through deception and fraud—until advances in DNA technology and determined cold-case detectives finally unraveled his lies. In this Current Affairs special, Jessie Pray and Andie Cassette explore a case where delayed justice ultimately prevailed, bringing closure to a family long kept in the dark. Current Affairs is Love Murder's shorter show about the stories of love gone fatally wrong that are in the news right now.
