Sneak peek: Driven to Extremes | Forensic Files

I hate to say this because I'm a woman but I think that a lot of women see successful
men self-made men attractive men they think I want a piece of that they're traveling at a
high rate of it doesn't matter if they're married or not oh my goodness Francis and billal met when
they were in high school I think they were around 16 and neither of them had very much money they started dating and
they were married by 18 Francis Hall is someone that you wish was in your family she's very
selfless caring and really always thinking about other people Bill Hall loved Francis and his
children but Bill's fatal flaw is that he also liked the attention of younger women Bonnie conteras is Bill Hall's
mistress he had been dating her for about 3 years and by most accounts it was a pretty open
[Music] Affair I'm trying to think of the most flattering way to describe Bonnie
contras Bonnie contras is almost like a master manipulator she would take compromising photos kind of just gather
all these nuggets that if things ever went South she had all the proof she needed to kind of force you to do what
she wanted my mother was on the verge of a nervous breakdown because Bonnie was taunting her constantly Bonnie contras
put Francis through Hell she's texting and calling Francis Bonnie would call her every explicit name in the book and
just say you're so fat and disgusting you have this toxic love triangle got multi-millionaire husband
and wife and this mistress trying to wedge her way between them I get a phone call from my
mom and she said I just saw your dad and I just saw Bonnie when Francis first sees her
husband Bill and then Bonnie she's about 2 miles down the road this way and that's when she makes the decision to
make a U-turn and finally confront this woman that's been you know wrecking havoc in her life so her husband and
mistress they're driving toward us on this highway exactly they're coming this way they're still going 85 90 M hour
I believe that she intended to kick Bonnie's ass that day okay that's what she wanted to do she wanted to go over
and she wanted to beat up Bonnie Francis Hall took a 210 death tank to what should have been a fist fight Francis
Was Out For Blood I don't think anyone imagined that by the end of that day there would be a
dead body in someone in handcuffs
