About this episode

To outsiders, Aldo and Barbara Pacheco seemed like a happy family. When Barbara filed for divorce after a decade of marriage, Aldo became obsessed with winning custody of his kids and vowed that if he couldn’t have Barbara, no one else would. 

Join Mike and Gibby as they talk about Aldo Pacheco. What appeared to be an earlier attempt at killing Barbara caused Aldo to be charged with aggravated assault and aggravated kidnapping. But he was out on bond when he initiated a standoff with police that resulted in the death of two people.
