THE HOUSE OF LIES
In 1987, James Douglas Powell staged his disappearance near the Rio Grande and started a new life under the identity Christopher Keith Riggs. He built a successful real estate business, remarried, and attempted to leave his former life behind. But the truth about his double life eventually surfaced, bringing legal consequences, prison escapes, and a trail of devastation for the family he left behind.
In this episode of Devious Backstories, we unpack the deception, the investigation, and the extraordinary lengths one man went to in an attempt to escape his past.
