Summary
39-year-old Connie Dabate was a mother of two who was killed just two days before Christmas. Her husband Richard claimed she was killed by an armed intruder who broke into their house that morning, but Connie’s Fitbit data would prove his story was a lie.
Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the murder of Connie Dabate. Connie's husband Richard claimed a masked intruder shot Connie and then wounded him and left him zip-tied to a chair. His wounds were fairly superficial for the scene, so the police were skeptical of his claims. Why would an intruder shoot and kill Connie but leave Richard alive? Connie's Fitbit would provide the answers that the police needed.
