About this episode

Ep 82: When a 19-year-old woman is found deceased from an apparent suicide, an investigation revealed the victim’s involvement in a volatile love triangle.

The evidence quickly gathered by police would point to not one, not two, but a trio of viable suspects with a motive to kill.

This is the Devon Guzman Story
