20/20 May 26 2023 “Dead Man Talking”

Wendi Mae Davidson, former Texas veterinarian and mother of two, reported her husband, Air Force Staff Sergeant Michael Severance, missing in January 2005. Authorities searched for the father and airman who survived five tours of duty in the Middle East. But soon, a joint investigation by Texas Rangers, the Air Force Office of Special Investigations and local authorities revealed that Davidson knew far more about Severance’s whereabouts than she disclosed. “20/20,” in collaboration with Plum Pictures, features an interview with Davidson from prison, where she is serving her 25-year sentence for her husband’s murder. She speaks to ABC News chief national correspondent Matt Gutman about what she claims really happened to her husband and discusses the evidence authorities say points to her, including Severance’s toxicology report that showed that large amounts of animal tranquilizers contributed to his death. The program also contains recordings of police interrogating Davidson in the days following Severance’s disappearance and interviews with Frank Severance, Severance’s brother; Leslie Severance, Severance’s father; and other friends of Severance who discuss his troubled marriage and their feelings about Davidson.

“20/20” has additional interviews with Ron Sanders, former Tom Green County Sheriff First Sergeant; Shawn Palmer, retired Texas Ranger; and Greg McCormick, former Special Agent with the Air Force OSI, all of whom worked on the investigation. Also included are interviews with Dr. Sridhar Natarajan, former chief medical examiner in Lubbock County who was involved in performing Severance’s autopsy, and Diane Fanning, author of “A Poisoned Passion,” about Severance’s murder. “20/20” airs Friday, May 26 (9:00-11:00 p.m. EDT), on ABC, next day on Hulu.

The documentary highlights personal stories of members of the community, including Felix Rubio, a deputy sheriff who resigned from his post, and his wife Kimberly, who moved their family to a different house because seeing their daughter’s bedroom was too much for her surviving children to bear; Caitlyne Gonzalez, 10, who travels across the country to fight for gun reform in the name of her friends who didn’t make it; Jazmin Cazares, who struggles to navigate her senior year of high school while grieving the loss of her little sister; and Johnathan Hernandez, a U.S. Marine who continues to grapple with how to raise his son in a world with gun violence. The film also tracks surviving teacher Arnie Reyes as he attempts to recover from his physical injuries and the mental anguish of losing all 11 of his students.

This “20/20” report also provides an unprecedented and complete account of what happened on the day of the shooting, including new and exclusive interviews from those inside, previously unheard 911 calls, unreleased surveillance videos, and never-before-seen body camera footage and photographs.
