“How close was he to getting away with murder? Really close.”In the early hours of April 8th, 2006, Pastor Matt Baker makes a frantic 911 call to Waco police—he's just found his wife, Kari, unresponsive in their bed. As police race to the scene, they also call in Linda Dulin, Kari's mother, to take care of the couple's two young daughters. Though the cops don't see anything suspicious, Linda slowly realizes that Kari's husband, Pastor Matt, in spite of his Baptist faith and proclaimed innocence, hides many sins, including a damning search history, secret phone calls, and a past as a predator. Without Linda, the truth might’ve stayed buried - but the Texas mother is determined to uncover what really happened to her daughter, and get justice for her & her granddaughters.-CreditsWritten, directed & edited by Matthew RiceResearched by Manon LafosseVoiceover by William AkanaProduced by Alexandra Salois & Salim Sader-Sources“Dirty Little Secret.” 20/20: ABC, 2025 (Disney Media Distribution)“The Preacher’s Hidden Life.” 20/20 on ID: ABC, 2011.
