本期节目讲述了Deanna Wilde坠崖身亡的案件,起初被认定为意外事故,但随着调查深入,发现其中存在诸多疑点。Deanna的两位朋友BJ和Virginia McGinnis在Deanna死前一天为其购买了巨额人寿保险,并在其死后立即申请理赔。Deanna的尸检报告显示其手部有明显伤痕,这与意外坠崖的场景不符。此外,调查人员还发现保险单上的签名系伪造,照片分析结果也指向Virginia McGinnis是拍照者,而照片中显示Deanna在坠崖前状态异常,疑似被下药。调查人员还发现Virginia McGinnis此前还涉及其他几起可疑死亡事件,并从中获利,推测她可能是连环杀手。最终,BJ和Virginia McGinnis被捕并被控谋杀和共谋,BJ在审判前去世,Virginia被判终身监禁。
