"California Fertility Doctor Convicted of Staging Wife's Murder"
A San Clemente doctor, Eric Scott Sills, has been found guilty of second-degree murder for strangling his wife, Susann Sills, in a staged accident in 2016. Susann's injuries did not match the claim that she fell down the stairs, and evidence presented at the trial revealed a violent struggle between the couple. The motive remains unclear, but there were alleged marital issues. Eric, who faces a maximum sentence of 15 years to life in prison, worked as a fertility doctor, while Susann ran the business side of their clinic. The couple had 12-year-old twins at the time of Susann's death.
