Summary

In January of 1999, a 30-year-old pregnant mother was found murdered in her Texas bedroom closet. Police suspected her high school football coach husband from the beginning, but it wasn’t until eight years later that they would have enough evidence to convict him. And even after two trials, he still maintains that she was killed by burglars. So what really happened? This is the murder of Belinda Temple.
