Woman on TV:
No body, no weapon.
Next week
Hans Reiser goes on trial
for the murder of his wife.
Big questions arise...
Did he kill her,
or did she simply
leave her family
to escape a bad marriage.
It's a haunting story
as the investigation of
Nina Reiser continues.
The direct
physical evidence against Hans
is limited,
but police have built
a detailed circumstantial case.
Police have confirmed they
believed Hans Reiser acted alone.
- According to some, Nina...
- What is this?
It's Hans.
He made the Linux
operating system...
Big nerd celebrity.
I'm profiling the case
for wired.
Hans says he lives for his kids.
In divorce court,
a critical ruling...
Hans lost legal custody
of his precious children.
His life was falling apart.
Man:
I don't know where Nina is.
All I know is that the woman
that I love is gone
and her children keep asking me
when she's coming back
and I don't know
what to tell them.
I'm just a husband and a father.
I'm a victim in all this.
No one took Nina,
no one hurt her.
She just left.
Nina left her family.
And with that,
the last man known
to have seen Nina alive heads
back to his cell.
Hey, can you get me in?
- To the trial?
- Yeah.
Why?
Where is Nina?
Sure.
Jen:
Hey, Stephen, it's Jen.
I know you know those pages
are due at penguin next week.
I hope it's going well.
Give me a call.
Hey, man. It's Josh.
I got you the Reiser interview.
You're welcome.
Call me.
Who are you?
I'm Stephen Elliott.
Uh, look,
I'm not talking to reporters.
I'm not a reporter.
I just want to write a book.
Well, that's kind of hard
to trust your kind of people.
Writers, they have a way
of spinning things
the way they want to.
Yeah, I know. I have a
lot of ex-girlfriends
who have accused me
