Kaitlyn Conley, Adam's ex-girlfriend, worked at the Yoders' clinic and was at Mary's bedside during her last hours. Still, some spoke of her history of rage-fueled behavior. Had Kaitlyn and Adam conspired to kill Mary? Yet another suspect emerged when accusations were hurled at grieving husband Bill Yoder. . . M.
