Harold 'Butch' Knight: Wanted For Murder
Manage episode 376716590 series 2831212
2015 - Fennville, Michigan.
“On Sunday, January 11th, I strangled her… she’s dead, and she’s laying on the living room floor…”
When Allegan County police showed up to the residence mentioned in the haunting 911 call, they discovered the lifeless body of 48-year-old Sara Lee Knight in the exact condition described by the anonymous caller—virtually frozen due to the absence of heating in the house.
Documents, funeral instructions, photos and personal items of Sara’s had been organized and laid out on the table for police to find. The only thing they couldn’t find was Sara’s husband, Butch.
It didn’t take long for police to realize the person who made the call to 911 was 66-year-old Harold “Butch” Knight. Butch had taken Sara’s vehicle and skipped town, eventually making his way up to a tiny town in rural Maine. By the time they found Sara’s abandoned vehicle, it was too late. They’d lost his trail.
Almost a decade later, police are still searching for Butch. This is the story of Sara Lee Knight, and Harold Wesley Knight, who is a fugitive of justice.
