Nancy Hixt: 本集讲述了2004年卡尔加里一起看似意外的住宅火灾,最终被调查为一起由婚外情引发的双重谋杀案。调查过程中充满了意外转折,警方揭露了令人震惊的细节,包括纵火者的身份和作案动机。最终,纵火者和幕后主使被绳之以法,但受害者家庭的悲痛却难以抚平。 Superintendent Cliff O'Brien: 作为当时的卡尔加里警方凶杀案调查组的侦探,我参与了此案的调查。起初,火灾看起来像是一起意外事故,但两名证人的出现改变了一切。他们提供了关键信息,指认了纵火者Michael Sheets和Furnam Kizar,并揭露了这起案件背后隐藏的真相。 Trish Pace: 作为凶杀案调查组的犯罪分析师,我负责分析案件相关人员的背景信息和联系。通过对电话记录和警方的数据库进行分析,我发现了嫌疑人与受害者家庭以及Minar Hussein之间的联系,为案件的侦破提供了关键线索。 Gord Haight: 作为卡尔加里检察院的副首席检察官,我负责起诉此案。Sheets和Kizar承认他们被Abdulaziz El-Ahib雇佣去恐吓Salma Burri,但最终实施了纵火行为。El-Ahib和Minar Hussein的审判过程充满挑战,最终El-Ahib被判有罪,而Minar Hussein因证据不足被判无罪。 Alan Heppner: 作为Abdulaziz El-Ahib的辩护律师,我努力为我的当事人争取公正的审判。尽管证据显示El-Ahib策划了这起纵火案,但我仍然认为他的意图只是恐吓,并非故意杀人。 Salma Burri: 作为受害者的母亲,我经历了失去孩子的巨大痛苦。这场悲剧不仅夺走了我的孩子,也让我对加拿大司法系统感到失望。Minar Hussein的无罪释放让我无法接受,我渴望得到正义,但我的孩子却永远离开了。 Tasin Almayahi: 作为受害者的父亲,我与妻子Salma共同经历了失去孩子的悲痛。这场悲剧对我们的家庭造成了无法弥补的伤害,我们渴望得到正义,但现实却令人心碎。 Michael Sheets: 我承认我参与了纵火案,并对我的行为感到深深的悔恨。我愿意为我的所作所为承担责任,并向受害者家属表示最诚挚的歉意。 Furnam Kizar: 我承认我参与了纵火案,并对我的行为感到后悔。我愿意为我的所作所为承担责任,并向受害者家属表示歉意。 Abdulaziz El-Ahib: 我否认我策划了这起纵火案,我的意图只是恐吓,并非故意杀人。 Minar Hussein: 我否认我参与了这起纵火案,我没有预料到会发生这样的悲剧。

On November 17, 2004 a young Calgary family settled in for the evening. At about 9pm, the husband left for work as a security guard, while his wife stayed home with their two children. In the middle of the night, she woke to the sound of shattered glass. Within minutes the entire home was engulfed in flames. After desperate attempts to reach her children failed, the mother managed to escape. The children didn’t survive.
