Leo said his day got even worse, ending at that birthday party that night, hosted by Rebecca.

You were sitting there at that dinner, and you knew that a person that you loved, that had given you and your family an opportunity, was lying dead at the bottom of stairs.

And you still pushed through that celebration.

How did you sit through that?

How was she acting that night?

Did she seem stressed?

Upset?

During your interrogation, police asked you if you had any knowledge of the murder, if you had been there.

And you swore on your mother's life you weren't at the house.

You swore on your child's life that you knew nothing about it.

And that was not true.

That was a lie.

Are you telling me the truth right now?

I want to ask you directly, Leo, did you kill Dr. Stephen Schwartz?

Did you have anything to do with trying to cover up his murder?

Police still didn't think Leo was telling them everything.

Maybe Rebecca had shot her husband, but they believed he was involved, that he had staged the burglary because Rebecca had threatened to cut him off financially.

And you think that was his motivation?

Diebel also thought Leo was the one who delivered that fatal slash to the doctor's neck.

They charged him with first-degree murder.
