Forensic Files season 8

The body of 34-year-old wealthy American businessman Madison Rutherford was found in his rental car.

Teeth and bone fragments were all that remained of the body; miraculously, an engraved wristwatch and medic alert bracelet had escaped the inferno and were found in the ashes.

When the Rutherford's wife filed a claim for $7 million of life insurance, investigators sought the help of a renowned forensic anthropologist.

His findings and the work of other forensic scientists uncovered a chilling scheme of fraud and deceit.

Madison had stolen a body from a cemetery, burned the car, and then gone into hiding.
