He kept going to voicemail.
Okay, I'm not the only one.
Hi everyone, I'm Lester Holt and we are talking Dateline.
Today I'm here with Andrea Canning to talk about her episode Secrets in the Ashes.
If you haven't seen it, you can watch the episode on Peacock or listen to it in the Dateline podcast feed and then come right back here to listen to our discussion.
So to recap, after a suspicious home fire in Texas leaves a mother dead, her husband, Delbert Mills, is eventually convicted of her murder.
Investigators are left wondering if
Delbert's second wife, someone called Allison Salinas, was also involved, but she's never charged.
Allison moves to Illinois and starts over, essentially.
She opens a bakery, some other businesses, money-making schemes, if you will.
But after she tries to get an ex-boyfriend to murder the new man in her life, she is arrested and ends up in prison.
In this episode, we'll have a podcast exclusive clip of Andrea's prison interview with Delbert Mills, what he says his biggest regret is.
So stick around for that.
And later, we're going to answer some of your questions on social media.
For now, let's talk Dateline.
Hey, Andrea, this is quite a story.
Thanks for being here to talk about it.
Yeah, I think it's safe to say these are two very dangerous people.
Whose story did you hear about first?
Was it Delbert's conviction for the fire or Allison's murder-for-hire scheme?
