About this episode

Bernard Finch was a wealthy doctor who worked in the San Gabriel Valley in Southern California. In 1958, he began having an affair with his married receptionist Carole Tregoff. When Dr. Finch’s wife was found dead, the two became the prime suspects.

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss Bernard Finch and Carole Tregoff. Finch was the type of man used to getting his way. He also had a habit of divorcing wives when he fell in love with a younger woman. But Barbara Finch was in a position to divorce Bernard and take a great deal of his assets. This is something that Bernard couldn't have, and he made a plan to do something about it.
