On May 13, 2016, prominent Dallas attorney Ira Tobolowsky was found burned to death inside his home. What first appeared to be a tragic accident quickly unraveled into something far more sinister. Investigators determined the fire had been deliberately set, and Ira had been attacked before the blaze. But who would want a respected lawyer dead?

Soon police arrested a suspect, a man entangled in a bitter legal feud with Tobolowsky. As evidence mounted, Aubrey was arrested and charged with murder. But in a shocking twist, the case against him was dismissed, leaving Ira’s family and the legal community stunned.

Was this a calculated act of revenge? A case of a legal dispute turned deadly? Or is the real killer still out there? With legal twists, defamation lawsuits, and a suspect still walking free, this case is as fiery as the crime itself.

Join Arlene and Leah as they unravel the tangled web of betrayal, violence, and courtroom drama behind one of Dallas’ most chilling unsolved murders.
