Description
In this episode of Crime Bit with Danelle Hallan, we examine the 2012 murder of Jim Melgar in Houston, Texas, and the controversial conviction of his wife, Sandy. Despite no physical evidence tying her to the crime, Sandy was charged, tried by multiple prosecutors, and ultimately sentenced to 27 years in prison while her family insisted she was innocent.
In Part 1, Danelle traces Jim and Sandy’s decades long love story, the night of the attack, and the early investigation, including ignored DNA and a lead detective later fired for falsifying records.
