58. Murdered: Kristin O’Connell (Pt 3) Days Turn to Decades

This is the 3rd part in a series. Please listen to episodes 56 & 57 first.

In part 3 of Kristin’s story: We explore those early days, immediately following Ovid’s brutal murder.

A 911 call is either a tip or a diversion, an FBI agent that Kristin met before visiting Ovid is hard to track down, and finally - we discuss a witness account of men, covered in blood.

Also- we’ll talk more about theories and possible motives that have been introduced over the years, after careful investigation.

This is Kristin’s story, told by those who are fighting for her.
