To get them, yeah.

But many questions remained, including why would Joe want his wife dead?

Searching for answers, some eyes turned to a woman the Coronas knew from church, Becky Black.

Did she cooperate?

Yes.

So right away she copped everything, the relationship?

Yes.

Becky Black met Joe when she was in her mid-30s, feeling unappreciated in a troubled marriage.

Even after police questioned Becky, she continued to see Joe.

After the murder, I was kind of caught in between.

But soon her support turned to suspicion as Joe allegedly bullied Becky.

She had had enough.

Becky told her husband about the affair and her concerns about Joe, which she now also shared with police.

Seeing an opportunity, investigators convinced Becky to keep the pretense of the relationship going and to meet Joe in her car, in a parking lot, wearing a wire.

You love me more than you did her?

While Joe did repeatedly profess his love for Becky in those recordings, he did not profess guilt.

Actually, Joe was at the top of the list.

But investigators doubted the affair was the motive for murder, especially when they learned Tina had known for years that Joe was cheating on her.

A lot of people think this was about Becky Black.

Investigators were still searching for a motive when they learned about a home the Coronas were planning to buy.
