The source material provides an extensive account of the 1992 murder of Gail Mosby in Jackson, Mississippi, focusing on the events leading up to her death and the subsequent investigation and trial. It first establishes the tragic discovery of Gail's body in her bathtub by a neighbor during a child custody exchange and sets the stage by describing the victim's life and her acrimonious divorce from ex-husband Richard Mosby. The episode then examines the homicide investigation, detailing crucial evidence like strangulation signs, defensive wounds, and Richard's contradicting alibis and the presence of his cologne at the scene, which established motive (custody and financial gain). Finally, the account summarizes Richard's 1993 trial where he was convicted of second-degree murder, his subsequent parole, and the lasting legacy of the case, which continues to be analyzed in true crime media.
