A Confession in the Cotton: The Murder-for-Hire of a South Carolina Farmer

A Confession in the Cotton: The Murder-for-Hire of a South Carolina Farmer

Published 1 month ago
Description
For years, the death of a South Carolina farmer was written off as a tragic accident or a mystery without an answer. But in 1988, the case was blown wide open when a criminal's stunning confession revealed a chilling truth: the farmer was the victim of a murder-for-hire plot, and the men who paid for the killing were two of the community's most prominent and trusted members. This is the story of how the FBI's greatest law enforcers and forensic scientists worked to verify the hitman's story, untangling a web of small-town secrets, greed, and betrayal to prove that the perfect crime was, in fact, a cold-blooded conspiracy.
