Judgment of the "Sleepwalking Killer"
16 March 2023 - 44 mins explicitWhat would motivate a man to brutally stab his wife, and the mother of his children, forty-four times and then drown her in their swimming pool? In 1997 Scott Falater was accused of doing just that but claimed he had no memory of doing so because he was sleepwalking. This week’s episode dives deeper into his story with an audio edition of the original series Judgment with Ashleigh Banfield. Would he be able to convince a jury that he did not kill his wife in cold blood? This is Judgment of the “Sleepwalking Killer.”
