Submerged: Ryan Widmer, his drowned bride and the justice system
Description:
A young bride drowns in her bathtub. Her husband of four months is accused of murder. What happened in their tiny suburban bathroom--and why--was never resolved. A gripping true-crime drama, based on exclusive new information, SUBMERGED exposes hidden angles of a case that divided an American community, tore apart two families and tested the criminal justice system. Compelled by conscience and curiosity, former Cincinnati Enquirer reporter Janice Hisle--who covered the saga of Ryan and Sarah Widmer from the start--dug deep to tell the untold story. Ten years later, new questions and answers surfaced in dozens of interviews, 6,000 pages of trial transcripts and previously unrevealed records such as:*Ryan's first statement about Sarah's death *attorneys' notes and trial-preparation documents *Ryan's personal journal, notes and correspondence *More than a thousand pages of police records SUBMERGED will draw you into the depths of a stranger-than-fiction story that you will ponder long after turning the final page.
