Murder Or Suicide: Investigate A Mysterious Death In Colorado: Domestic Abuse And Murder

Countless times there is the call for a "death investigation" and can usually figure out it's a suicide vs. homicide very quickly. Ultimately, it's not even a police decision - the medical examiner will determine the cause of death. Surviving families with an intense dislike, or outright hatred, for the surviving significant other, are very difficult to deal with, they become crusaders; even to the point of ignoring all evidence to the obvious.

This is a true story of two families deeply impacted by the death of 36-year-old Kathleen Rafferty Petrocco. The coroner said the 2019 death was a suicide; Kate's family feels the mother of twins was murdered - or at least driven to kill herself. Growing media coverage, a well-known Colorado produce company, and damning social media posts all play a role in the aftermath. Domestic abuse, alcohol and drug addiction, alleged affairs, enabling family members, and the failure of the social justice system all contribute to this heartbreaking, real-life saga.
