Episode 60- The Murder of Wendy Trapaga
Episode description
In October 2002, the body of 21-year-old Wendy Trapaga was found. She had been beaten so badly, that she was unrecognizable. The police soon learned that Wendy had only been married to a man named Michel Escoto for four days, and that he had taken out a $1 million life insurance policy out on her. Was that his motive, and did he really marry and kill her for money?
