The Prosecutors: In Pursuit Of Justice
Father’s Pain
S2 • E9 Jan 21, 2002
When a mother and her infant daughter disappear from rural Huntsville, Texas, suspicion quickly falls on the woman’s husband. Lacking evidence, authorities cannot make an arrest. With the case growing cold, a teenager hundreds of miles away confesses to the murder of Margaret and Kori Rae Owings. Prosecutor David Weeks builds a capital murder case around the confession, but defense attorneys argue that it was illegally obtained. It will take the United States Supreme Court to decide whether an admitted murderer will go free.
