On the 29th of August, 1986, in a small church in the city of Lakeland, Florida, Leo Schofield and Michelle Somm tied the knot.

19-year-old Leo looked every inch the wannabe 80s rock star, kitted out in his borrowed white tux and black mullet, while 18-year-old Michelle beamed in her high-neck ivory gown, complete with puff sleeves and quaffed perm.

And then, when accusations of violence in their relationship surfaced, along with the neighbour's account of his odd behaviour in the days after she vanished, suspicions rose yet further.

Then, when Leo's own father discovered Michelle's savaged body, following what he claimed was a message from God, it looked like a horrific family affair that had ended in the brutal murder of a young newlywed.

But years later, the plot thickened when new evidence took things in an unbelievable direction.

This is a case that has rolled on for four decades, until 2024, when we finally got what is probably the closest we're ever going to get to justice in this case.

It's so good.

Is it?

It's very, very, very good.

Okay.

If you guys, if anybody hasn't listened to Bone Valley, it's got like three seasons, four seasons now, I believe.

I'm aware of it.

Yeah.

Yeah.

The first two seasons are about this case.

And it's just, it's fantastic.

It's just like a really, really good example.

Good is putting it mildly.

A phenomenal example of relentless journalism.

And absolutely fantastic.
