Picture Perfect Murder of Nancy Cooper p...

Crime Salad
About this episode

Join us on the next episode of Crime Salad where we examine the explosive ending of a picture perfect marriage located in the picturesque town of Cary, North Carolina. From the outside everyone thought Brad and Nancy Cooper had the perfect marriage. Brad was the perfect husband, Nancy was the perfect wife and they even had two perfect daughters to complete the picture. But underneath was a marriage built on control, mistrust, infidelity and abuse. The facade came crashing down when Nancy went missing on July 12, 2008. Just two days later her body was found near a remote storm drain. It would take an entire community, each holding a piece of the puzzle to bring Nancy's killer to justice. Support us!
