Description

Samuel H. Sheppard posits the theory that a drug-crazed murderer killed his wife, saying it "is supported by the fact that a large amount of narcotics was stolen and by the vicious nature of the attack." That theory was discounted by Raymond J. Ripberger of the Federal Narcotics Bureau. Also, a friend of Sam Sheppard, Gerry Flick, gives his own theories of the crime to police.
