This episode of “ABC 20/20” airs tonight July 1 at 10PM ET. When Scott Falater’s neighbor witnessed him drag his wife into their backyard pool and hold her head underwater after he stabbed her, it may have seemed to be an open-and-shut case. That was until Falater acted utterly stunned at the accusations and maintained he had no recollection of killing his wife. With no criminal record and a seemingly good marriage, Falater’s actions also puzzled his family and friends. But when Falater claimed to have a sleepwalking disorder, it raised the stunning question: Was he asleep during the murder?. You can also watch previous episodes at ABC and on Hulu.

The intriguing case quickly made headlines as the media covered the trial gavel to gavel. “20/20” co-anchor Amy Robach sits down for a jailhouse interview with Falater in his first interview since his conviction 22 years ago. In the emotional interview, Falater opens up about the killing, his children and his life in prison. “20/20” features a conversation between Falater from prison and his son, Michael, who was just 12 years old at the time of the murder.
The two-hour program also features the first interviews with Joel Tranter and Steven Stanowicz; the first network TV interview with Kemp Layden; and members of the Phoenix Police Department at the time of the murder about what they saw when they were some of the first to arrive at the crime scene. “20/20” also includes interviews with the renowned sleep experts who testified that they believed Falater was sleepwalking and some of the jurors.
