When St. Charles, Missouri, authorities were called to Bob Eidman’s office, they were stunned to find his lifeless body with a gunshot wound, killed in broad daylight. Initially, investigators believed they were dealing with a typical robbery gone wrong, but as they dug deeper, they uncovered a much darker story.

Bob’s wife, Diane, revealed startling information during questioning, including the fact that Bob kept large sums of cash in his office drawer and had been secretly involved in a relationship. This revelation led investigators to suspect Diane, as the evidence seemed to point to her. However, further investigation and cutting-edge DNA evidence ultimately cleared Diane, exposing the true identity of Bob’s killer and a shocking twist in the case that no one saw coming.

20/20 takes viewers through this complex case with exclusive interviews from law enforcement, including St. Cloud police officer Dean Mayer, detectives Don Stepp and Stefanie Kaiser, Sgt. Billy Wilcox, and Bob’s family members Glen and Pam Eidman.
