Fake Identities, Kidnapping & Murder: Uncovering The True Identity Of Sharon Marshall

Описание: In April 1990, a 21-year-old woman was found dead on the side of a highway in Oklahoma City. 


The investigation into her death, which initially seemed like a straight forward hit-and-run, would lead police to uncover a violent trail of lies, abuse, false identities, kidnapping and murder, spanning multiple decades. 


Journalist Matt Birkbeck, our guest today, spent two decades researching this case and played an integral role in uncovering the woman's true identity.
