Linda and Todd Stermer

February 4, 2020/in Uncategorized/by Eyes for Lies

48 Hours this weekend told the story of Linda and Todd Stermer. Their house burned down in 2007, and Todd ended up dead. Linda says she ran over Todd somehow in the chaos.

Did you see the story? If you didn’t, you can catch it on CBS.com

Linda recounts the day of the fire, and what happened. Do you see any signs of honesty? Or do you see deception?

Her daughters believe her.

Her sons do not.

She was convicted of murder, but a judge who heard her case on appeals found she did not get a fair trial and she was released.

Share your thoughts below. I will add my comments in the coming days. Check back for my thoughts!
