About this episode
In August 1977, wife and mother of 2, Shirleen Howard was murdered in the basement of her Minnesota home. Shirleen was shot twice in what appeared to police to have been an execution. They quickly looked at her husband as a murder suspect but he had an alibi. Donald Howard had been out with his two girls shopping at the time his wife was murdered.
Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the case of Donald Howard. Police learned very early on that Donald Howard had tried to hire not one, but three different hitmen to kill his wife. One man took him up on it but it didn't go the way that Donald had planned. Police had to put all of the pieces of the puzzle together to learn exactly what had transpired and the reason why Donald wanted his wife dead.
