When the bodies of Reverend Edward Hall and Eleanor Mills were discovered beneath a crabapple tree, their affair was exposed, but their killer remained a mystery. Was it a crime of passion, a cover-up, or something even darker? Join me as we unravel one of the most sensational murder cases in American history, at that time, filled with betrayal, courtroom drama, and secrets that still haunt New Jersey today.
