Amy Mullis: The Corn Rake Murder
Category: True Crime
Duration: 00:29:02

Description:

“If he catches me, he will make me disappear,” was one of the last things wife and mother of three, Amy Mullis, allegedly told the man she was having an affair with just a few months before she was found lying face down with a corn rake sticking out of her back. She would die from her injuries received in what was initially believed to be a freak farm accident. However during her autopsy, it was revealed that Amy had sustained six stabs to her back - when the corn rake only had 4 prongs - meaning, the corn rake entered her back more than once. Police believed she was murdered - and they were looking directly at her husband, Todd Mullis, as suspect #1. However, Todd had an alibi – the couple’s 13-year-old son.

So was Amy Mullis really murdered or was this some kind of freak accident? And if she was murdered, was it her husband who did it? He did have an alibi and there were other people on the farm that day who may have wanted to hurt Amy.
