How the heck does DNA enter in to this? Mrs. Maher may be a very nice lady, but her loyalty to her hubby is blind.

She seems willing to suspend even the most reasonable disbelief in order to make this guy out to be a martyr.

DNA enters into this because the dead did not die of smoke inhalation. If you check out the case, you will find that too many things do not make sense. That, plus the fact that he was held for over two years without a trial makes me suspicious.

(Court TV) — Heidi Maher picked up the ringing telephone in her upstate New York home at about 9 p.m. Tuesday and heard the familiar voice of Ted Maher, the husband she thought was quietly serving his 10-year sentence for two deaths in the French principality of Monaco.

Ted Maher, however, wasn't calling from Monaco.

He was at a hotel in Nice, France, and in need of money to further finance the daring escape he and his cellmate made Tuesday night from a castle-like prison overlooking the Mediterranean.

"I told him no. I'm not going to aid and abet you," Heidi Maher said Wednesday, still numb from the call she says ended when her husband slammed the telephone down angrily.
