A Multimillionaire Was on the Run After Killing His Wife

About this episode

This episode recounts the high-profile criminal case of Peter Chadwick, a wealthy real estate investor who murdered his wife, Quee Choo Lim, in their California home in 2012. After attempting to frame a fictitious handyman for the crime and leading police to his wife’s body in a dumpster, Chadwick exploited his financial resources to jump a million-dollar bail and flee to Mexico. He spent several years on the U.S. Marshals Service’s Most Wanted list until an innovative police podcast and international tips led to his 2019 capture. The narrative explores how the victim's family persevered through the tragedy while the killer lived under various aliases to avoid accountability. Ultimately, the source concludes with Chadwick’s guilty plea and sentencing, illustrating that wealth and deception can delay the legal process but rarely provide permanent escape.
