A NOTE BEFORE LISTENING: Mary-Beth Tomaselli is Linda Sue Roberts’s sister and the other daughter of Anthony Tomaselli. After interviewing Linda, investigators brought Mary-Beth in for questioning about her father’s death and her possible involvement in the events Linda had described. The audio presented in Part 5 is Mary-Beth’s interview with detectives. For the clearest understanding of the case, please listen to Parts 1 through 4 before continuing.

This seven-part series features the secretly recorded conversations that helped expose the truth behind Anthony Tomaselli’s death. Crimeatorium obtained the recordings from the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office.

Four years after 85 year old Anthony Tomaselli’s death was attributed to natural causes, his daughter Linda Roberts invited a man she had been dating to her home and entrusted him with a disturbing secret about her father’s final night.

Realizing the enormity of what Linda was telling him, the man discreetly began recording their conversation. What started as a private confession would lead investigators back to a death no one had questioned.

Part 6 of the series will be released tomorrow.
