Jill Wells was shot and killed under suspicious circumstances, allegedly by her 6-year-old son, when her husband Mike Wells turned his back at target practice. But the investigation wrapped up in under 2 hours by the Sheriff's Office and no autopsy was performed, they just took Mike's story at face value.

Jill's family never accepted the story they were told because of a potential affair and a life insurance policy. When new law enforcement was elected, they fought to reopen her case.
