Episode 6: The Divorcée

Hastings, Nebraska - Part II

The investigation into the murders of Hazel Bird and Clarence Yager draws investigators from across Nebraska and from as far as Indiana. Intriguing persons of interest blow into and out of town in the weeks around the murders. And the police have a surplus of theories when it comes to what motivated the killings, most of which center around Hazel Bird's love life.
