UNRESOLVED: Kathleen Peterson

When the body of 48-year-old telecommunications executive Kathleen Peterson is found at the bottom of a staircase, her husband, novelist Michael Peterson, claimed her death was a terrible accident. But as police began to investigate, the grisly crime scene lead them to question Michael's version of events. Listen in as Maggie is joined by Tenderfoot TV producer and host of "Rattled & Shook," Meredith Stedman, as the two discuss the events leading up to Kathleen's death, the turbulent trial and re-trial of Michael, and an unlikely theory that has since emerged as a possible alternative explanation.
