About this episode

Have you ever heard the phrase ‘once a cheater, always a cheater’ and wondered whether that phrase might apply to other things…..like murder? Drew Peterson had been married four different times and had cheated on nearly every woman he had ever dated. His third wife had died under suspicious circumstances, and when his fourth wife, Stacy Peterson, mysteriously disappeared in October 2007 it opened up a murder investigation that would eventually expose an awful and tragic truth. This is the story of Drew Peterson, the killer cop of Illinois, and you are listening to Murder in America.
