Suicide or Murder for Money?: The Strange Case of Tim McNamara

Killer Instinct

A suspicious death, insurance payouts, multiple instances of incest, and so much more. Tim McNamara's case has many complicated layers and theories, and Savannah explores them all. Tim McNamara died from a gunshot wound to the head, but whether it was self-inflicted or a murder by his "wife" Tracy Nessl is still up for debate. Tim is Tracy's biological uncle with several accusations of molestation, and even supposedly dated Tracy's mother decades ago. Savannah wades through the strange family history and attempts to make sense of this mysterious death. Was Tim riddled with so much guilt and financial issues that he took his own life or did Tracy kill him in cold blood?
