What began as a simple home renovation project in San Marino, CA, ended in an arrest for murder. When Johnathan Sohus' body was uncovered in the backyard of the home, investigators were able to finally pin the killing on long-time con artist Christian Gerhartsreiter AKA Clark Rockafeller, Christopher Chichester, and many other aliases. But one mystery still remains, what ever happened to John's wife Linda Sohus, who is still considered missing? This week, Savannah explores the couple's tragic story that begins in 1985 and still open-ended. Savannah details the postcards supposedly sent from the couple while they were missing that were likely sent from their killer, how Christian was able to con hundreds of people, and how he was ultimately captured.
