Oh, it wasn't even, it's on my fingernail now. It was like a little tiny piece of hair. The tiniest little piece. Sorry, everybody. That was really bothering me. So let's get into it. That was like OG. Like, just trailing off.

467.59 - 468.31 Unknown

Would you trail off?

468.33 - 485.985 Ash

It really was. Leave it in. Let's get on with it, though. We've got a story to talk about today. I found this case really interesting, and I think you will, too. I'm excited. This is unfortunately a murder. It is the murder of Cheryl Purvaler, but lots of moving pieces in this case.

486.125 - 486.326 Alayna

Hmm.

486.906 - 500.818 Ash

And it starts a little before midnight on April 20th, 1968. A man named John Miller and his wife got home to the Castilian Apartments in Burbank, California, parked their car. They were just going to walk, you know, from the car inside, finish their night.

501.656 - 513.024 Ash

But as they were walking to their apartment, they noticed their neighbor, 22-year-old Cheryl Prevaler, sitting in her car with the engine running and the headlights still on. So they were like, what's going on with her over there?

Chapter 2: Who were the key people in Cheryl's life?

1347.706 - 1348.467 Alayna

That's suspicious.

They said interesting. Now, there were things about Marlon and Christina's relationship that also struck investigators as particularly odd. For one thing, they had been married for a number of years, but they got divorced and then remarried just a few months before the fire. Oh. Yeah.

1364.651 - 1372.293 Ash

And just as interesting, two months before Marlon was killed, Christina had taken out a life insurance policy in his name in the amount of $75,000. Wow.

1374.955 - 1376.436 Alayna

You know? Damn. Damn.

0

1377.157 - 1377.497 Ash

Damn.

1378.518 - 1379.359 Alayna

Like, wow.

1379.699 - 1395.471 Ash

Yeah. Yeah, just damn. Just damn. Wow. Okay. So a quick check of Christina's background revealed that she and Paul Prevaler just so happened to have been working together at the same insurance company at the time. Oh, no. Yeah.

1395.511 - 1396.952 Alayna

I see where this is going.

1397.052 - 1404.058 Ash

Yeah. Paul and Christina's workplace behavior led many of their coworkers to assume that they were carrying on a spicy affair.
