And Columbus police, we should point out, were quick to ask for the public's help in this.

Now, this is interesting.

On Monday evening, the Columbus police released security video of an individual, someone they say is a person of interest.

Describe that video to us.

There was also news of a 911 call placed from the couple's home back in April of 2025.

What do we know about that?

Ryan, before we go, I want to ask about the couple's children.

What do we know about how they're doing so far?

Ryan, it's a tough story.

One we'll be, of course, following as more details come in.

Thanks very much for joining me.

Coming up, a Georgia woman accused of staging her husband's apparent suicide 10 years ago is standing trial for a third time.

Our next story is the astonishing case of a Georgia woman by the name of Susan Embert.

It's a case that includes allegations of murder and poison.

And we should warn listeners, we'll also be talking about suicide.

On the morning of June 28, 2014, Susan says she found her husband, William Jake Embert, dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

But about eight months later, after getting new information from members of Jake's family, prosecutors charged Susan with his murder.

And not just that, they charged her with aggravated assault, accusing her of trying to poison Jake in the months leading up to his death.

Susan was convicted at trial in 2019 and sentenced to life in prison.

But then, in a massive twist, in 2024, the Georgia Appellate Court threw out her conviction after her appellate attorneys discovered that one of the jurors at her trial had been ineligible to serve.
