This is a story of justice that was a result of an arrogant criminals' stupidity. A missing woman - her wealthy (but odd) husband from a powerful family - and missteps in the case add up to a frustrating search over many years. A couple of murders later and a cross country saga ends with his capture for stealing band-aids. This is an interesting story that is unfortunatly too common (Scott Peterson, etc) but also kept alive for 20 years by her girlfriends who knew that things were not as they seemed.
