[Becky · Rating 3 out of 5]

Good, thorough, in-depth accounting of a murder, the investigation, and court proceedings written by the DA himself who was involved from the very start. Not sensational; very professional. Perhaps a bit too much so as it was hard to keep interested in all the details, especially during the trial. But it certainly shows how slowly actual investigations take place because it can take MONTHS for even one particular thing to be analyzed by a forensic specialist.
