She Hid Her Secret Lover In The Attic For 10 Years Even After He Killed Her Husband

What looks like a simple 1922 murder investigation in Los Angeles quickly unravels into something far more disturbing and almost unbelievable. Fred Oesterreich is found shot dead in his home, while his wife Dolly claims a burglar broke in, killed her husband, and locked her in a closet. But investigators don’t buy it for long. As they dig deeper, they uncover a secret that has allegedly been hidden in plain sight for years.

For nearly five years, Dolly’s teenage lover, Otto Sanhuber, had been secretly living inside the attic of the family’s home. Moving between houses with them, hidden above Fred’s head the entire time, Otto maintained a double life... emerging only when Fred was away. On the night of the murder, Otto comes down from the attic, confronts Fred, and fires the fatal shots. The two then stage the scene as a robbery, with Dolly even locking herself in a closet to sell the story.

What follows is one of the strangest legal cases in American history: filled with hidden lovers, conflicting confessions, media frenzy, and a justice system struggling to make sense of a man who literally lived inside the crime scene for years.
