Helen Golay & Olga Rutterschmidt: “Black Widows” | S5 E4

Following their 2006 arrest for mail and wire fraud, the LAPD and the FBI continued trying to build a murder case against Helen Golay and Olga Rutterschmidt. They’d found some evidence during raids on the women’s homes, but everything collected up until that point still wasn’t enough to build a murder case. The FBI continued trying to find anything to tie Helen and Olga to Paul Vados’s and Kenneth McDavid’s death. Soon, investigators pieced things together and found themselves in a position to charge the women with murder. It all came down to rubber stamps, a Post-it note, and evidence found on the undercarriage of the Mercury Sable seen in the surveillance footage on the day Kenneth McDavid was killed. The Black Widows were headed for trial, and spectators were in for a wild ride.
