Prosecutors allege Todd Kendhammer staged wife's death as freak car accident
"48 Hours" correspondent Erin Moriarty reports on the controversial case of Todd Kendhammer, who was convicted of intentional homicide for his wife Barbara's death in what he claims was a freak car accident. Kendhammer and his children are seeking a new trial, believing in his innocence. The case is explored in the episode "Mystery on County Road M," available for streaming on Paramount+. The incident occurred on a rural road outside La Crosse, Wisconsin, when Todd called 911 to report a pipe impaling the windshield and fatally injuring Barbara. Despite Todd's version of events, authorities found inconsistencies, leading to his arrest. The prosecution argued that Todd staged the scene to look like an accident and killed Barbara. Trial evidence was conflicting, with questions left unanswered. Kendhammer maintains his innocence, warranting ongoing legal battles in pursuit of justice.
