Talk about creepy•Published Oct 5, 2026NetflixThomas Randolph was, by all accounts, charming and charismatic. But, he had a checkered past. Known as the "Black Widower," Randolph had a string of failed marriages, several of which had ended in his wives' deaths. When he called 911 reporting that his sixth wife, Sharon, had been shot, it seemed like a simple home invasion. But as Dateline producer Dan Slepian began digging into the case, all was not as it seemed.
