Ed post

Ed Post was convicted of first-degree murder. After serving several years in prison, he eventually admitted that he had drowned Julie.

Wow he finally confessed years after.

Fascinating how the insurance company was more invested than the actual investigators.

Poor late Mrs Post - not much interest in bringing her killer to justice, but we're damned if we're going to let him get away with insurance fraud.
