Sandy Melgar finds herself in a cramped interview room being questioned by cops, but is she there as a witness or a suspect? 

Just hours after her husband was found murdered and she was found shut in a cupboard,  her arms tied behind her back, Santy agrees to a police interview. She tells detectives she’s not well and that she can’t remember what happened. They want her to take a lie detector test.
