What would you do if the FBI showed up at your place of work and told you that your meek and mild husband was wanted in connection with the disappearance of his first two wives…

This episode explores John Smith, a man who the FBI strongly believed had killed his two first wives. We discuss the lengths their families went to to get justice and how Diane Beasley coped with the revelation that her husband was not who she thought he was.
