About this episode

On December 23, 2015, Rick Dabate called 911 and told them an intruder had broken into the home he shared with his wife, Connie. When first responders arrived, they found Connie deceased. Prosecutors later told a jury that there was never an intruder and that Rick was a murderer. Would the jury agree?
