Laurie "Bambi" Bembenek was a young beautiful woman who had just been let go from the Milwaukee Police Dept. in Wisconsin when she was charged with first degree murder. Prosecutors claim that she was a seething new wife of officer Fred Shultz whose ex wife Christine stood in line to get "too much" money from Fred.
As his new wife she was just itching to get rid of Christine to get to Fred's money - but was this the truth?
Laurie stated that she was asleep the night of the murder and the motive was weak. Fred really didn't make all that much to begin with and she was nervous that his kids were so young; she didn't want to be their step mother to begin with - why would she get rid of Christine - leaving her as their "only" mother figure?
Also Fred had a lot more of a motive to have her killed as he spoke many times of his disdain for the amount of child support and alimony she would get.
What did happen the night of May 28, 1981 - and why would she confess to the murder so many years later?
