On July 2, 2009, Lisa Pattison was found unconscious in her home gym. Her husband Scott claimed he attempted CPR, and rushed her to the hospital. Scott said he returned home from work, and that Lisa had been crushed by her weight machine bar. However, the police soon learned of an affair and a life insurance policy. Scott was arrested, and charged with murder.
Did Scott kill his wife, or was it really a tragic accident?
