In 2016, Dr Lawrence Rudolph and his wife Bianca visited
A US man who in 2016 fooled the Zambia Police Service by claiming that his wife had accidentally shot herself at their hunting camp in South Luangwa has been arrested by the FBI for murder.In 2016, Dr Lawrence Rudolph and his wife Bianca visited Rudolph's attorney, David Markus, declared the allegations inaccurate. He declared in his opening statement: "They’ve chosen speculation over science. They’ve chosen fiction over fact.” Rudolph and Bianca were married for 34 years before her demise in 2016. They raised two children. Both were in the courtroom supporting their father. The defense also argued in court that no one witnessed the shotgun blast in the cabin. Markus said the shooting occurred around 5:00 a.m. as local guides served the couple coffee and helped them prepare for the return trip. They argued that with support staff swarming the area and cabin doors open, Rudolph wouldn't have been able to commit the crime without leaving any witnesses. Markus argued that Bianca accidentally dropped the weapon, triggering a fatal shot in the heart, as she hurriedly packed up for the trip while Lawrence Rudolph was in the bathroom. Zambian authorities and for insurers had already determined that the shooting was accidental, Markus said.
