Story Time Slayer Podcast presents the crimes of Scott Purk. Scott Purk was 46 when he called 9-1-1 to report a fire at his home. But investigators don’t feel empathy for Scott when they meet him at the scene…he actually gave police terrible vibes, and they were immediately suspicious of him. For good reasons though! And when Scott mentioned in passing his first wife had committed suicide while she was pregnant with his child 24 years ago an investigator couldn’t let it go & took a second look at her death. Tune in to hear how a simple house fire ultimately solved the murder of Margarette Anne Metcalf & her unborn son decades later. SOURCES
