Todd Kendhammer called 911 in a panic, describing a freak accident that occurred while he was driving with his wife, Barbara, in the passenger seat. He said a metal pipe had fallen from a passing truck, piercing the windshield and fatally injuring his wife. But police were suspicious of Todd's responses in the interrogation room, when his story continued to change, and his alibi didn't check out. Forensic details from the autopsy report cast further doubt on his story. Detectives came to believe Kendhammer strangled Barbara and staged the accident to cover his crime. He was convicted of first-degree murder. The couple's two children, Jordan and Jessica, continue to believe their father is innocent. Jessica speaks in his defense in this episode.
