48 Hours Mystery The Guessing Game

Episode Description

In Katy, Texas, David Temple was a gifted athlete and celebrated defensive linebacker at his high school. Temple went on to attend college on a football scholarship, where he became known as "The Temple of Doom." As an athlete, Temple got everything he desired and his success on the field was mirrored by his success off the field, when he became a football coach with a beautiful wife Belinda, an adorable son and a new baby on the way. But when his pregnant wife was murdered in their home, Temple's picture perfect life began to unravel. Police believed he was having an affair but, with a lack of physical evidence linking Temple to the crime, years passed with no new developments, until 2004 when Scott Peterson was convicted of killing his pregnant wife in a trial that captured the nation's attention. The similarities in both murders gave authorities a renewed confidence in their circumstantial case and David Temple was now facing the fight of his life.
