45: "Killer Cases - The Doctor is Dead"

Shear Crime Podcast

On this week’s episode, Ame and Kenzie share the story of the murder of Dr. Teresa Sievers as told by the series Killer Cases on Hulu. Dr. Sievers was a beloved wife, mother, and holistic family physician with her own successful practice in sunny Florida. After returning home from a trip to Connecticut to visit family and celebrate her mother’s birthday, she is met by two men lying in wait inside of her home. The next morning, prompted by her not showing up for work, her neighbor comes upon her brutally murdered body on the floor of her kitchen, with a blood covered hammer nearby. With little to no evidence left behind, the case looks like it may be impossible to solve. But a phone call on a tip line lead police to a small town in Missouri and points the finger at two career criminals as the ones responsible for her death. It doesn’t take long, however, for a trail to appear that links these men as being lifelong friends with Dr. Sievers husband, Mark. Now looking like a murder-for-hire job, investigators scramble for evidence and prosecutors use testimony from one of the convicted killers to charge Mark for being the brains behind the whole operation. Will they have enough proof to put him away?
