Summary
When 49-year-old former sitcom star Bob Crane was found murdered in 1978, detectives quickly honed in on their one and only suspect: Bob’s friend and confidant, John Carpenter. It took years to finally bring John to trial, but when they did — there wasn’t enough evidence to convict him. To this day, Bob Crane’s murder remains unsolved.
