In 15 years, Lowell Amos lost 3 wives...and gained over $2,000,000. They say marriage can be a struggle. For Lowell it was more often a struggle, then a long silence, as he stood over the cold bodies of his different wives. First it was Saundra, then Caroline (who only invited him to move back in with her after his mother passed away) and finally Roberta, whose death brought up the suspicious circumstances of Saundra and Caroline's earlier death and at last sent Lowell to where he should have been a long time ago: prison. **LAST EPISODE FOR A WHILE - CHECK INSTAGRAM FOR UPDATES** --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

She revealed the horror that had been going on in that trailer (that soon became known as 'the Toy Box') for possibly years - and the many other victims that had faced it.
