Another Utah murder trial will play out in this week's episode of "48 Hours" (Saturday, 9 p.m., CBS/Ch. 2) — although there's no suspense for anyone who read the Tribune when the trial concluded in March.
Correspondent Susan Spencer reports on the trial of Johnny Wall, who was eventually convicted of murdering his ex-wife, Uta von Schwedler, and trying to make it look like a suicide. And the report focuses on the efforts of von Schwedler and Wall's son, Pelle, to put his father away for his mother's murder.
Saturday's episode marks a return to the case for "48 Hours," which has previously telecast reports about the troubling sequence of events. And Spencer interviewed Pelle Wall during the course of the trial.
"My father being put on trial is the culmination of a lot of work," Wall says. "I will be sitting across from him. I'm sure he doesn't have warm feelings for me.
"His conviction is incredibly important to me."
The hour also includes interviews with Wall, investigators, family members and von Schwedler's co-workers.
