So this could be a huge motive.

I mean, this this made sense.

And before ruling Frank's death a suicide, investigators did look into the possibility that he was actually murdered by one of these alleged fraud victims.

And we say alleged because obviously Frank did not live to see his criminal trial.

However, a 2016 ruling found that Frank had misled investors.

The state imposed about $109,000 in civil penalties.

My literal worst nightmare.

And none of them missing, but also with Ben's death, who's taking care of them?

Their condition immediately starts suffering.

I mean, no one else has the knowledge base or the time to go in and

feed these snakes so give them the little rats it immediately becomes an issue that these snakes and their quality of life is like immediately going down post-murder so yeah if stealing high value snakes was the motive one they're not gone and two they're going down in value because they're suffering yeah if you wanted the snakes if the point of the murder was the business you really like i don't know cut off the legs of the business of like yeah you shot yourself in the

As detectives started looking into Ben's finances, they learned that he had a million-dollar life insurance policy.

Huge motive right there.

Yeah, I mean, worth a lot of money.

And Lindley, his wife, was the sole beneficiary, which is why this life insurance policy is our third clue.

So detectives actually get the agent that sold Ben his policy on the phone.

And get this, just a day or two after Ben died, Lindley had gotten in touch with that agent.

She wanted to learn when the policy would pay out.
