48 Hours Mystery - Raisch Murder
Posted: Wed Jul 19, 2006 11:43 am
Tuesday night 7-18-06 CBS covered the Raisch murder (Olanthe Kansas).
A man was found beaten to death, his wife claimed two intruders did it. The blood spatter evidence did not match her story. But nothing could be done. The police suspected a Secret Visitor and had an idea of who he was.
Twenty years later two detectives visited the now remarried Mrs. Raisch and questioned her. She spilled her guts, and named the murderer. He too had remarried (another woman) and lived liked a millionaire (Harvard Business School).
She was found guilty, and made a deal to testify against the murderer. He too made a deal.
There are some similarities to Our Favorite Unsolved Mystery.
[I thought calling this a "Nazarene Divorce" was hitting below the belt.]
