It’s Crime O Clock Somewhere

On November 13, 2010, the body of 28-year-old Anni Dewani was found in Cape Town, South Africa. She had been on her honeymoon with her new husband Shrien, and had been out sightseeing the night before with Shrien, and taxi driver named Zola Tongo. Zola and Shrien both said they were robbed at gun point by two men. But, why was Anni dead, and the other two weren't?

On July 2, 2009, Lisa Pattison was found unconscious in her home gym. Her husband Scott claimed he attempted CPR, and rushed her to the hospital. Scott said he returned home from work, and that Lisa had been crushed by her weight machine bar. However, the police soon learned of an affair and a life insurance policy. Scott was arrested, and charged with murder. 

Did Scott kill his wife, or was it really a tragic accident?

On Halloween 2004, around 2am, Lauren Meanza woke up to the sound of her dog growling. She then heard her two roommates, Adriene Insogna and Leslie Mazzara scream. Adriene and Leslie had both been stabbed repeatedly, and passed away from their injuries. It would take several cigarettes, blood and a new kind of DNA testing to solve the murders.

On July 25, 1988, child star Judith Barsi and her mother Maria were killed in their West Hills, Los Angeles home. Two days later, Judith's father Josef would take his own life.
