In 2002, a home invasion left two people dead but the plot quickly unraveled. The only question–one that would last beyond the deaths of two of the co-conspirators–is who was the mastermind. This case is solved. (Episode correction: Matthew Shallenberger's name is mispronounced as Shallenberg twice in the episode. I am out of town and cannot re-record to correct it.)
