    Post Mortem | Death at the Front Door: Who Shot Heidi Firkus?

    Correspondent Jamie Yuccas and producers Asena Basak and Jordan Kinsey discuss theories of whether Heidi Firkus' death was an unfortunate accident or an intentional murder. Minnesota couple Heidi and Nick Firkus frantically called 9-1-1 to report a break-in at their home. A gunshot was heard over the phone and Heidi was killed. Nick claimed the intruder shot Heidi, but prosecutors believed he staged his wife’s murder to cover up their home foreclosure.

    On September 13th, 2006, a body that had been found floating in the water of Newport Beach Harbor in California was identified as 56-year-old Barbara Mullenix, who had been stabbed more than 50 times--a sign detectives said meant she likely knew her killer. Why would somebody want Barbara dead? Detectives at first looked at her ex-husband Bruce and their rocky relationship, but soon moved their focus to her daughter Rachael and her boyfriend Ian Allen, as the evidence led investigators to an unthinkable conclusion. Erin takes you deeper into the "48 Hours" investigation, "Lady in the Harbor".
