When Michele MacNeill's 6-year-old child found her unresponsive in her bathtub, her daughters Alexis Somers and Rachel MacNeill immediately suspected that their father, Martin MacNeill, had killed her. It took authorities five years to charge Martin, a wealthy doctor and father of eight, with Michele's murder. A two-hour "20/20" reports on the twists and turns of the story, including what prosecutors say was Martin's plot to kill Michele; his affair with another woman, Gypsy Willis, who moved in as the nanny just weeks after Michele's death; the identity fraud scandal involving Gypsy and Martin stealing his adopted daughter's identity, landing them both for a time in federal prison; and his daughters' persistent pursuit to seek justice for their mother and put their father behind bars for good. "20/20" airs on Friday, Aug. 27 (9:01-11:00 p.m. EDT), on ABC. (Rebroadcast. ABC OAD: 6/14/19)
