I've told the story a number of times of watching the re-trial of Claus von Bulow, when he was acquitted of trying to murder his wife. Alexandra (Moltke) Isles didn't want to testify again and had gone to Europe. She finally came back and testified. I remember being quite chilled at her testimony that he called her to say that he was lying next to his wife watching her and then couldn't go through with it and called for help.
The part that has particularly stuck with me is that a local station was showing DS at the time and they were in 1795 at the witchcraft trial, so I watched her take the oath and testify both for real and on DS the same day.
Anyway, I noticed in our newspaper today (to me it's still Friday night) that it was 20 years ago that he was acquitted. I can't believe it's that long since I saw that.
