But it took us all the way to Canada.

The murder of Ashley Schwamm, a mom of two.

She was found dead in a burning car.

Initially, police thought that she had had an accident in her car.

And of course, they quickly discovered that this was no accident.

She didn't appear to have really died in the car.

She hadn't had soot, as you said, in her lungs that would indicate she had died in this fiery crash.

So investigators now are zeroing in on her husband.

As you said, they don't want to rush to judgment.

But his alibi that just seems too slick and too clean has raised some red flags.

And then they begin the forensics and they begin looking at Ashley and this car.

And there's a true smoking gun, which was really the forensics here.

Yeah.

Well, and there was also a smoking lighter.

Now, you could make the argument he just happened to have had it in the car and maybe was smoking.

And that was so different from what they would have found in an ordinary car crash.

Right.

What was fascinating to me in your piece was, you know, as we said earlier about the lab and the forensics, and they had a unique way of kind of peeling away the layers in this story.

And I think so many viewers now are fascinated by the forensics because, you know, that's the high-tech part of our lives now and so revealing in so many cases.

And this lab had a unique way of taking a look at this evidence.
