DH's uncle was just convicted in California of killing his first wife by setting their home on fire and being "unable" to save her. He got their 3 kids out. Years later he moved back to our area and killed his son while he was working under a vehicle. The man got the vehicle to fall onto his son, then he and his second wife left him there to go out of town for something. When he got back, he "discovered" the son dead.
Both murders for purely for insurance money, which he collected and spent. I believe he also torched vehicles and a barn with horses that were insured as well. Like I said he was just convicted this past month and will be sentenced in March for the first murder, then I believe will be transferred back here for that trial as well. The story was covered extensively on the news and I believe on Dateline.
Crazy world.
