Plot Synopsis

Based on the book, "Fatal Vows," by Joseph Hosey. Charming Chicago-area officer Drew Peterson seemed virtually "untouchable" in more ways than one when it came to his womanizing ways, having been married three times before landing the eye and affection of Stacy Cales, a woman half his age. As his relationship with Stacy blossoms, his relationship with his third wife, Kathleen Savio, unravels in a bitter divorce -- until Kathleen is inexplicably found dead in an empty bathtub. Soon after making Stacy his fourth wife and having their first child, Peterson's jealousy and controlling ways begin to strain their marriage. Suddenly Stacy disappears, leaving her two children and Peterson's older children behind. Peterson insists that Stacy left him for another man, but in the wake of her disappearance, new questions are raised about Kathleen's death and her case is re-opened, drawing national media attention to Peterson and the strange cases of Kathleen and Stacy. He seems to bask in the media attention, professing his innocence and announcing his engagement to yet another younger woman. But when authorities take a closer look at the circumstances surrounding both cases, a different kind of spotlight is placed on him as more questions arise. In 2009, Peterson was indicted and charged with the murder of his third wife, Kathleen Savio. He is currently in jail awaiting trial.
