Summary

Christi Hall's Drowning In Her Jacuzzi On June 7, 2007 Appeared To Be An Accident Until A Neighbor Called 911 Claiming She Witnessed Something Much More Nefarious. Did Chris Hall Murder His Wife Of Almost 30 Years? [Part 2]

**KD IS NO LONGER WITH ORBITAL JIGSAW OR BLUBRRY**

This is the second part of a 2 part episode. Please listen to Episode 127 first. On June 7th, 2007, Chris and Christi Hall were up early rinsing off in their backyard spa, as their bathrooms were under renovation, when suddenly Chris began shouting for help from his daughter, who was asleep inside. Christi had apparently fallen, hit her head on the side of the concrete spa and fallen in the water. Paramedics were called, but there was nothing that could be done…Christi Hall was dead of an apparent accidental drowning. But what Chris Hall didn’t realize was there was someone on the other side of their backyard wall that was catching glimpses of what was going on, and to her it was definitely not a simple slip and fall.
