Just as the investigation into a 25-year-old cold case heated up this week, the prime suspect—the victim’s husband—called police and said he was going to kill himself.
Two days earlier, the 1998 disappearance of Peggy Sweeten had jumped back into the headlines after police fished a 55-gallon barrel out of the water near the Oklahoma home she shared with Jim until she vanished. No human remains were found in the barrel, but detectives said they were more determined than ever to find out what happened to Peggy Sweeten and bring her presumed killer to justice,After Peggy, a 52-year-old special education teacher, disappeared two decades ago, Jim claimed she had run away with a paramour. But there was no evidence of that, and he stopped cooperating.
