Episode summary
For years, David Hendricks was the walking embodiment of the true crime trope "The Husband Did It." After his family was brutally murdered in their Illinois home back in 1983, police were quick to zero in on him as their main suspect despite the lack of evidence and mostly because... nothing else made any sense. Decades later some still believe in his guilt but knowing what we know now can you still be so sure?
