These days West Covina is solidly middle class and suburban. But, 60 plus years ago West Covina was a buzzy suburb full of upper middle class doctors and lawyers, their families, and their sprawling properties. Back in the 40s and the 50s it was a welcome retreat from the busy city life of LA for the rich and almost famous. The country club scene in West Covina was turned upside down one summer night in July 1959 when a love triangle between a married prominent doctor and his secretary turned mistress ended in murder. Misconduct is a bi-weekly true crime podcast hosted by Colleen. New episodes are available on Thursdays.

Carole Tregoff and Bernard Finch

This is a story local to us, and we've never heard it discussed on any other podcast. In 1959, a glamorous, well-to-do doctor's wife named Barbara Jean Finch was gunned down one night in front of her mid-century modern West Covina, California home. A witness, her young au pair, saw the murderer with her own eyes. It was Barbara's estranged husband, Bernard "Bernie" Finch. But what the au pair didn't notice was Bernie's lover, Carole Tregoff, hiding in the bushes on the property. Even after Bernie fled the scene, she stayed there all night. Why was Carole there, and was she part of a plot to get rid of Barbara so that she and Bernie could marry? Join us to find out and, along the way, travel to Las Vegas and back, meet an accused gigolo hitman, and muse over why celebrities were so enamored with Bernie Finch. This is the third episode in the podcast's first season, "Accessories to Murder." Click on our website link below for source information.

Hosts: Paris Brown and Desi Robba Produced, written, &amp; edited by: Paris Brown Music by: Dr. Frankenstein.  "Theme for 'The Mad Thinker'" from The Cursed Tapes: Stolen Songs from Dr. Frankenstein's Lab, 2005 and by Lobo Loco. "Town Searching Murder" from Headcrash, 2018. Website Facebook Instagram Twitter
