Heartbreak in Williamsport

Dr. Richard Illes, a successful heart surgeon, and his wife, Miriam, a stay-at-home mother to their young son, were a prominent couple in their small community of Williamsport, PA. Then, on Jan. 15, 1999, Miriam was fatally shot as she stood in front of her kitchen window. Because Miriam had filed for divorce from her husband, investigators believed Dr. Illes was responsible. “48 Hours" correspondent Susan Spencer reports.
