Ashley Schwalm's murder: How the person closest to her orchestrated the crime
ABC News
Authorities found Schwalm's body in a fire-ravaged car off the side of a snowy road in Blue Mountains, Ontario, in the early hours of Jan. 26, 2023.
Ashley Schwalm was an interior designer, a mom of two and a wife with a marriage that was unraveling behind closed doors in ways that would ultimately turn deadly.
After her body was discovered in the front passenger footwell of her charred SUV, investigators would eventually learn that Schwalm's death was no tragic accident -- but the actions of the person closest to her.
A new "20/20" episode, "Footprints in the Snow" airing Friday, Feb. 13, at 9 p.m. ET on ABC and streaming the next day on Disney+ and Hulu, examines the case.
