Amy Bosley

Summary Amy Bosley and her husband, Robert, were making a name for themselves in their small Kentucky community. Together they ran a successful roofing and chimney sweep business. But, tragedy struck on the night of May 17, 2005. Police received a frantic call from Amy claiming an intruder had shot Bob and was still in the house. Police launched a manhunt for the intruder, but the lead investigator immediately suspected something was wrong with Amy's story. Bob had been shot seven times while sleeping, and his gun was missing. Also missing were the shell casings, which should have littered the crime scene. When police found the missing casings in the Bosley's washing machine, they placed Amy under arrest. Police also discovered a motive: the Bosleys were deep in debt, and, unknown to Bob, the IRS was literally knocking at their door over a $1.5 million tax bill. Amy first pleaded not guilty, but her case didn't hold up well during a dramatic four-hour pretrial hearing, and she reconsidered. In September of 2006, she pled guilty in a deal strongly influenced by Bob's family. His parents, now raising the couple's two children, wanted to spare the kids from having to testify against their mother.
