The fact that he hasn't even spoken to her family and has been 100% uncooperative speaks VOLUMES! His daughter is in an uncharted area of denial.

Waitress: "Would you like another coffee, sir?" Donny: "I plead the Fifth."

That hairdresser has a good soul!

Marsha was really isolated after her parents passed away. Nobody noticed she was gone for months. That was precious time wasted that allowed the husband to get rid of evidence.

Not reporting your wife missing for so long is very suspicious.

There's no way I can believe any word of his daughter.

Ah yes, marital issues, his failing business that is built on her money, she goes missing and isn't reported missing, her jewellery gets sold, leaves her home that was built for her by her parents, leaves her dogs, leaves all the things that anyone would need to leave. Man there is no way

He and his daughter both have sinister vibes. 😳 I hope justice will be served someday soon!!!!

Please don't stop with this investigation!

This case is so sad 😭. This man probably thought no one would look for her because she had no parents 💔. I’m glad someone did something and I hope some day justice is served.

The daughter infuriates me!! Calling her a loner when she was apparently a social person is ridiculous!! Loners don’t join writing groups and make friends with their hairdressers. I wanted to just go up to her and be like your dad is a murdering POS who was so cold toward his supposed “love of his life” and just because you didn’t see that side of him as his daughter doesn’t mean he isn’t capable of it

The daughter is a real piece of work..she benefitted off of her step moms wealth and goodness…

A dog lover will never ever leave their dogs.

Whaaaat?? A daughter doesn't think her dad killed her stepmom? What a shock that she's taking his side. /s All of her friends had the same to say about Marsha but only the hubby and step kids had anything negative to say about her. That speaks volumes!

I wouldn’t be surprised if he buried Marsha’s body in concrete in someone’s basement to never be found again . He does construction he has access to all kinds of supplies, tools and areas . May Marsha be found some day so her family can have closure and move forward.

The daughter knows exactly what happened. They should drag her in for an intense interview.

Boy his daughter's just like him. She had a house & dogs she would no way have left. When you're 'troubled & depressed' your animals are the only ones you want to be around. Poor Marcia...it's as though he used everything she had to give him then crumpled her up & threw her away. Saddest thing ever. So sorry for this family.

What a creep...what did she ever see in him...RIP Marsha, you deserved better,

His lawyer and daughter are a real piece of work no common sense he pleads the fifth fails a polygraph sells her jewelry has her phone and everything she owns was left behind! Disgusting!

No one who loves dogs the way she did just leaves them, without a word. Narcissists don't deserve good people in their lives.

I could not help but notice how his daughter's eyes never left the ground while he was speaking during the press conference. She is the sole keeper of his many secrets!

It’s so sad that it took people months to notice her missing … but nice to see there are fighting for her now!

Omg this bloke totally did it. No truly “concerned” husband keeps pleading the 5th

The fact that she was massively depressed makes it LESS likely that she would have been able to pull off this kind of disappearing act and maintain it for so long, or to commit suicide in a way that hid her body from ever being found. Real bad vibes are coming off the husband and his daughter.

So thankful that 48 Hours is putting full episodes online!!!

“Four cars pulled up and told him to get on the ground. It was pretty traumatizing.” You know what else is traumatizing? Getting murdered by your husband!! RIP Marsha.

Makes you wonder how many people, isolated for whatever reason, may have gone missing yet don't have anyone to notice and seek help...

“I plead the fifth” in my opinion confirms guilt. you wouldn’t have to plead the fifth if you weren’t doing anything wrong. his daughter, what a joke she is

I truly pray this beautiful lady gets the justice she deserves 🙏 Shame on the step-daughter for speaking so disrespectfully about her stepmother, karma will catch up with you young lady!

The step daughter seems so indignant!!! It's disgusting. Everyone gets what is coming to them in the end.

I hope and pray that Marsha gets justice. Just because she was depressed doesn’t mean she ran away or ended it. There are a lot of people who deal with severe depression everyday who do not run away or end it. God bless Marsha, her family and all those who loved her.

I love how diligent 48 hours is in solving a case! Please find Marsha!

So let me get this right. Marsha went into depression after her parents suddenly died a month apart, yet we are to believe she left the house they built her. She supposedly also left her dogs behind. She left her family and friends too, supposedly. No way do I believe that. As a person who lost both parents unexpectedly, I went into a depression too. I worked through the pain with the help of my pets, family, and friends. I cherish anything that belonged to my parents. I don't think this woman willingly left her life.

One day, something will break this case wide open. I hope that day comes soon.

I have bipolar disorder and right now I'm going through one of many major depressive episodes. The one thing bringing me comfort? My dogs. They are cuddled up with me while I watch this. *I would never leave my dogs behind* if I were leaving my home for some reason. Not unless I planned to die, and then I would have to know they were going to be taken care of. I have two dachshunds. I have other animals too, but it just really hit me when they said Marsha had a dachshund. They are incredibly sweet dogs. As an introvert and something of a loner who also provided care for my mother before she did, there was a lot about this case that just struck close to home. Check up on your friends and family who have some kind of depression or are introverts. We may be resistant to spending a lot of time socializing but we still need to know we are valued. This case is heartbreaking, but the DA didn't have a case. I hope they find Marsha.

It's awesome that the stepdaughter got herself all gussied up to talk about her dad murdering her stepmom.

The stepdaughter knows more, she admits. Look at the smirk on her face, when asked what she thinks happened to Marsha... She probably helped. She never confronted her father, if he did something. She either knows, he did it, maybe even helped him to get rid of the body, or she is an unemphatic sociopath. Loving your parent still makes you want to know what really happened. She keeps smirking during the whole document. She feels like she knows more than the rest of us and it makes her feel superior. She cannot control the joy of feeling superior. It makes her feel so good.

He murdered her for sure, and shame on their daughter for denying what is beyond obvious … disgusting.

Daddy's little girl knows more than she's telling.

It’s just crazy . She is dead and her husband did it for sure . It’s crazy how he just gets to live out his life . This story breaks my heart , they haven’t even found her body and who knows if they will . I pray for Marsha ❤

The daughter saying she was a different person after she lost her parents in a voice of annoyance is so callas and cold. Yeah, if you were close to your parents and lost them that close together, you would be sad, depressed, changed.

So if someone goes missing, their medical records can be read out to all the world? There's so much wrong with this.

Being in dog rescue for 20+ years, I can truly say from my experience, that animal lovers like Marsha are compassionate, empathetic people. Do not feel she would ever leave her furrbabies. Truly sad & terrible what happened to her. Her beady eyed husband sitting in that deposition taking the 5th was sickening & sooo telling! His daughter is delusional a minimum! I wish they would find her remains & pray justice is served someday. They should bring out cadaver dogs around house, woods, etc. Peace to her family & many thanks, bless the Hairdresser. ❤🙏

I really hope that Marsha’s remains are found so that she can be properly laid to rest and that someone comes forward with additional information so that justice can be served. My thoughts and prayers are with Marsha’s family and loved ones.

The most natural thing she would have done is kick her conniving husband out of her house.Him saying she left on her own accord is absurd

The fact that her phone never left her home was something they could have keyed on..no women leaves her phone behind..it’s her lifeline.

Thank you 48hours for putting this full episode on.

The step daughter saying she wasn't loving and saying she was a loner make me think she was tryna indicate she maybe just left on her own. Which I don't think anyone believes. I'm a loner but I'm not leaving without my dog and ferret.

Watching him twitch his swivel chair around when being questioned by detectives is a self- soothing, nervous action and is very telling. He's super guilty. He covered his tracks but money is the reason.

You can see sadness in Marsha's eyes even though she is smiling.

You really don’t see people go that above and beyond to help a friend. What a great person!

Thank goodness for Kelly! Hope I have a friend like her when I need one

Well, based on how the daughter behaves in the interview. The daughter might have been the one who murdered her stepmom for the money, together with her father. She definitely knows what happened to Marsha. She is a witness that keeps the truth from Marsha's family and friends. She didn't speak any nice words about Marsha, only about her dad... So so sad. I can't believe they are getting away with it.

The prosecutors did the right thing by not moving forward with the case, because it's definitely best to attempt to strengthen their case and possibly move forward later.

He did it and it’s a shame he’s not behind bars. RIP Marsha 🕊️

Ah yes.. they have marital issues, so she leaves the house her parents built for her instead of kicking him out. Makes sense. Leaves all her clothes, and her dogs behind. His daughter absolutely helped in some way, shape, or form. I wonder if luminol would work after almost 14 years. They certainly had time to clean it up and dispose of her body. I'm willing to bet that she's in the city dump, and it makes me so sad because if that's true.. she'll never be laid to rest.

Nobody reported her missing for months? TF?! People, we need to do better!

I would start with a very careful eye on Marsha's parents' post-mortem exam results and even re-examine the parents bodies again. I don't trust this man.

NOTHING IN MY LIFE OR IN THIS WORLD WORLD WOULD EVER HAVE MADE ME LEAVE MY CATS BEHIND & UNLESS YOU HAVE PETS IT'S PROBABLY HARD FOR YOU TO 'GET' AND I THINK EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE A FRIEND LIKE THE ONE WHO CARED ENOUGH TO REPORT MARSHA MISSING, GOD BLESS HER HEART.

Yay! New FULL episode ! This is quickly becoming my favorite part of the morning. ☺️

Shame on the daughter for taking her step mom's wealth and lying for her murderer father and money - hope the same pain happens to your own precious kids. If I were that new lover and watch this episode, I would get the hell out of killer's house

the #1 sign of guilty husband is when they do not report their spouse missing

Another wife killed by the despicable husband. She is gone and he doesn’t care or do anything about it. And he must have gained very much financially by her disappearance

I think defense attorneys don’t believe what they are saying sometimes. How could they?

met on a dating website , that's a disaster in itself

One thing which was missing from this story is what Donnie was doing before he zeroed in on and milked Marsha for all she was worth, then disposed of her literally and figuratively. I also find it extremely suspect that Marsha's parents died suddenly and so close together just after Donnie comes into the picture. Why would it be so much of a reach to think that Donnie killed Marsha's parents, and then Marsha all in order to get a hold of their money and property? With that said, if I were the DA in this community I would have been exhuming Marsha's parents' bodies and doing careful autopsies, as well as doing extensive background searches on both Donnie and his extremely creepy, smug daughter to see if any other suspicious deaths and or missing persons were associated with them over the years. Seriously, Donnie swoops in and soon after Marsha's parents end up dead with only a month between their deaths, and then Marsha turns up missing with not a single shred of evidence. It truly defies any randomness. Then Donnie handles law enforcement's interrogations like a pro, (like a seasoned veteran) as if he has had plenty of prior experience in this exact type of situation. The same could be said for his Elvira daughter, whose composure while being questioned on national TV looks like a walk in the park---also as if she has been in similar situations in her past. It's as if Donnie and his daughter watched the 1990 movie "Pacific Heights" and decided to mimic the plot in real life, i.e. researching and finding rich people to victimize. When I see cases like this one they seem all too well orchestrated to not have some sort of black ops funding behind them, and then some (like immunity from prosecution).

"I'm sorry this is incompetent". Nailed it Peter Vanzant!!!

The fact that there was such a delay of anyone ever reporting her as missing is the reason he got away with it. That's why even if you're isolated and you work at home and you work for yourself you should have some sort of network that you check in with regularly and let them know that if you don't check in that it's out of character.

His daughter knows too, her half smile creeps me out!

*The Hair dresser is that friend you can count on to be there no matter what!!! You go girl!!!Marsha, is with you smiling saying THANK YOU 4 CARING ENOUGH 👌🙏🤍❤*

A nice family who raised a quiet and sensitive soul (Marsha) who unfortunately met a monster who took advantage of her good nature and eventually killed her. It angers me he was able to get away with it, to enjoy the home and everything her beloved parents had left for her. What a despicable man he is and he has and equally despicable daughter.

When murderers leave enough clues to sink a battleship, you have to wonder if they WANT to be caught. The hairdresser was incredible!

Huge clue when they don't report their loved one missing.

She waited late in life to find a partner, and this was the beast she found. 🤯 Trust no one.

He is guilty and the daughter is delusional thinking he is innocent!

The step daughter - wow. So cold.

Marsha would be a blessing to have as a friend. Justice for Marsha!

This is so heartbreaking. Marsha seemed a really nice lady. May she rest in peace.

That man murdered his wife, and the cold hearted daughter helped him cover it up. I guess the heartless gene runs in the family. RIP Marsha 🌹

Strange that her parents died so close and he profitted from their inheritance via her

As a fellow dog lover... There is No way, that she would leave her dogs behind!!!

Our hearts go out to Marsha and her family and friends. Praying really hard that her family and friends learn what happened to her. Based on this episode, I do believe her husband killed her and greatly profitted from her death. I pray that he never has a moment's peace; and that what he has done is done unto him sevenfold.

How thoughtful and hardworking he is! Yeah, at hiding the body!!!

Watching these shows of what happened to other people teaches you compassion and how to see the red flags 🚩 GOD Bless us all 🥰😇

Unbelievable. They need to find more evidence and charge him again. It'd be nice if someone would do a podcast on this.

Did anyone investigate the death of her parents...

And his daughter is in extreme denial, the apple don't fall far from the tree

He is so guilty. If he were a loving husband whose wife really legit disappeared, he would NOT be pleading the 5th. I would guess he’d do everything in his power to clear his name. He knows he disposed of her in a way she’ll never be found.

If I was severely depressed and needed some time away from my life...the last thing I wouldn't leave behind is my dogs. Dogs help get you through times like that. There are other ways justice will be served. Condolences.

That body is somewhere. He seems pretty confident that it won't be found. Couldn't they trace his steps at the time to see where he went using his cell phone? I would never ever just leave my dogs.

I feel like the DA did the right thing because if there was an acquittal, he couldn't stand trial a second time. If they can just find her body then I could see them having a strong case. I feel so bad for her and her family. She seemed like a depressed woman who couldn't reach out, and then she got murdered, too. I don't think she just disappeared. She loved her dogs too much. :/ I wonder if the stepdaughter had an alibi...

He looks guilty to me. Why tell lies about her disappearance, and why pawn her belongings? It's only a matter of time before Marsha is found and proven dead. hoping that happens soon.

Kelly the hairdresser was a godsend in this case.

His daughter must think we are stupid; of course her dad is guilty lol

They had a real marriage. His daughter: her mouth says yes her head says no.

I still can't undertand how someone can go missing for months and nobody close enough to her to report her. That's why we need to be more supportive with our family, and look for each other, no so independent, we are living in different times now.

The stepdaughter gives me the ick. He no doubt killed Marsha. I feel so terrible for her family. He is an evil man and the stepdaughter is blindly ignorant and way too trusting.

So he is just living his best life in her house wow! He lied about the cellphone, she took no clothes! No one leaves their cellphone behind!! Crump should be called crumbs this was ridiculous 🤦🏾‍♀️ justice for Marsha

Having suffered with major depression for a very long time and having it be exacerbated the last few years by a cheating husband and impending divorce, I find this story so troubling. If Marsha was going to commit suicide, why would she take the 100k cash? Marsha adored her animals like they were her children. If she wanted to leave her husband, there is no way that she would have them with the person who was troubling her, i.e., her husband. Marsha leaving the house that was given to her by her dear, deceased parents is unbelievable. Rather, if she wanted time to think about her marriage, Marsha probably would have asked her husband to leave. The fact that Marsha did not take her cell phone makes absolutely no sense. I pray that one day her husband gets his due.
