Resumen del episodio

This episode details the tragic shooting of Judge Esther Salas, her husband Mark, and their son Daniel in their New Jersey home. As law enforcement investigates potential motives ranging from personal grievances to a targeted attack on a federal judge, investigators uncover a connection between these murders and the death of Mark Angelucci via a similar modus operandi. The investigation eventually identifies the perpetrator as Roy Denhollander, who left behind a 1,500-page manifesto detailing his misogynistic motives and resentment toward Judge Salas. The tragedy ultimately led to the enactment of bipartisan legislation designed to protect judges by restricting access to their personal information.
