The trial of Raynella Leath is unlike anything Erin Moriarty has covered before. It all began in 2003 with a frantic call to 911 when Raynella found her second husband David Leath dead of a single gunshot wound and called 911 to report it as a suicide.

However, his autopsy said otherwise, and 14 years later, Raynella stood in court for his murder.

Hear the beginning of Raynella Leath’s story and how the widow’s web begins to unravel. This is the first episode of Married to Death from My Life of Crime with Erin Moriarty, available wherever you get your podcasts. New episodes on Wednesdays.
