Description

Three trials. Two husbands. One woman.

Raynella Dossett Leath is a 70-year-old grandmother living quietly on a 15-acre farm in the Karns community of Knox County, Tennessee. Her life has been far from quiet.

In "Suspicion," we will take you through the deaths of Leath's two husbands, her trials and how she managed to escape a life sentence.
