Episode description
On January 18, 1997, Beverly Watson disappeared and her husband, Jim, became a prime suspect in the case. There was virtually no evidence: no witness, no body, and no proof that Beverley was even dead. But police noticed that Jim was wearing makeup to conceal what appeared to be scratches on his face. “48 Hours" Correspondent Harold Dow reports.
