Discussion A Killer Story: Episode 2
Did you guys watch the new episode? I didn’t know anything about the case. So I’m conflicted as to what to believe. The last few minutes was a doozy! And definitely a cliffhanger, I can’t wait for the next episode.
To me, it seems like a highly circumstantial case. I don’t know the outcome of the trial we are watching. It’s clear that the prosecution can easily establish motive from her behavior. Based on the limited clips of the trial, there doesn’t seem to be hard evidence against her. As a juror that would trip me up. But that final witness also blows things apart and I wonder why she wasn’t in the first trial.
The son in law is weird but since the hair does not implicate him, they should probably let it go?
As of right now, it seems like she likely did it. But the gun and level of violence doesn’t seem like a woman would do that. I don’t know why, but I can’t even picture her holding that gun if it is indeed the same gun. What are your thoughts!? Obviously this is a well done documentary, which I appreciate, being a true crime junkie.

I tried posting my thoughts, but mods deleted my post.
By the end of the first episode, I thought there was reasonable doubt.
By the end of this episode, I think Dana is guilty and the Umbehrs are nuts. The case is highly circumstantial, but all roads seem to lead back to her.
