Pregnant Army Captain Stabbed in her Bed : The Lynn Reister Story
from TRUE CRIME with Bratterstein · host BRATTERSTEIN

A bloody palm print at the scene matched Rodney’s. Both brothers were eventually convicted, Roger received life in prison for solicitation of murder, and Rodney was found guilty of murder
