Teen Movie Night Murder: FL v Thomas Ste...

Brandi Churchwell
About this episode

It was supposed to be the perfect start to spring break. Three teenage girls spent the evening at the movies before deciding to grab a late-night meal at McDonald's. As they laughed, filmed videos on their phones, and walked down a quiet back road in Cape Coral, they had no idea another group of teenagers was driving toward them.

Within moments, everything changed.

In this episode of 13th Juror, we unravel the events of that night, the investigation that followed, and the trial that asked one critical question: Who was responsible for pulling the trigger? From surveillance footage and digital evidence to two completely different versions of what happened on that dark road, this is the heartbreaking story behind Florida v. Thomas Stein.

As always, I'll lay out the evidence so you can be the 13th Juror and decide for yourself.
