Summary

In the summer of 2024, when pediatric nurse, Mamta Kafle Bhatt, failed to report to work, her coworkers asked for a welfare check at her home in Manassas Park. An innocent encounter at her home with her husband, Naresh Bhatt, didn’t reveal any signs that anything was wrong. However, details of Mamta’s troubled marriage coupled with lies that Naresh told police on that first visit would eventually lead to murder charges. The missing persons case remains unsolved with a looming trial date for Naresh set in September 2025.  Join Margot as she takes you through the information that has been released to the public as we explore no-body trial cases.  ——- Thank you to today’s sponsor:  Magic Mind: Visit magicmind/militarymurder and use code MILITARY20 for 20% off!
