THE LONGEST MURDER TRIAL IN MARYLAND HISTORY... Even though she was still married to her fifth husband, Tina, an ex-prostitute from Las Vegas, rehearsed for her sixth wedding to a wealthy Maryland businessman, Robert Myers. Robert wanted his wife killed. Divorce was too expensive. Tina proposed a blood vow. "You marry me and take care of my kids, and I'll have your wife murdered for you." He agreed. Tina arranged to have Robert's wife murdered so she could take over his house, his assets and his life. In the early morning hours of August 29, 1979, Robert received a phone call. He heard, "She's dead. Our job's done. She's dead. Shot nine times." The investigation and trials lasted over two years. Robert's original lawyer betrayed him, and his new lawyer struggled to keep him out of the gas chamber under the impossible conditions of Robert, incredibly, having confessed his guilt to him. The investigation and trials lasted over two years, and resulted in the longest murder trial in Maryland history.
