This movie gives you a look at what happened, the trial, and the aftermath. Absolutely no investigation into exactly why it happened just " I think it was because." In all honesty, with no disrespect intended, Ms. McCollum could have shot the doctor because he ended a love affair, or threaten to take their child away from her. If she shot him because he abused her and she was the richest woman in town why didn't she just pack up her bags and leave with the children. Again this is just more speculation more questions should have been asked by the people making this movie

I have tried for 5 hours to view this documentary . It repeatedly shows the Prologue but it will not show the film. Vey disappointing . I feel I should be refunded.
