Motive for a Kidnapping: Wealth, Revenge, or a Scorned Lover?

from True Crime · host Media Network

The brazen abduction of a wealthy young woman from her in-laws' driveway presented investigators with an overwhelming puzzle: too many suspects with compelling motives. Was it her tumultuous current husband, a jealous ex, or one of several spurned lovers? With the victim's life hanging in the balance, the FBI faced a race against time not just to find her, but to first decipher the true motive behind the crime. This is the story of how agents untangled a complex web of personal vendettas and financial temptations, separating heartbreaking lies from damning truths to uncover which person in her life was driven to commit the ultimate act of betrayal.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime--6473403/support.
