Nine months of manipulation, a car trunk full of cash, a bottle of acid, and a Cape May alibi — Bill Bradfield really thought he had this one locked up. Part III of the Mainline Murders picks up on June 22nd, 1979, the most critical 72 hours of the entire case.

We follow the final movements of Susan Reinert and her kids, walk through Bill's meticulously constructed alibi weekend, and watch the investigation slowly close in — not through a dramatic confession, but through a $25,000 paper trail Bill assumed nobody would ever find.
