Murder On Ice: The Story of John Hartman and the Fairbanks Four

The City of Fairbanks files a lawsuit against the Fairbanks Four, meanwhile, another young Native man is killed by the police. Priorities.

Convicted murderer William Holmes wrote a letter, confessing to his involvement in the killing of John Hartman. But, how reliable are people on the inside? Could he have other reasons for inserting himself into this case? And, was William Holmes involved in another Fairbanks murder, of a woman named Mahogany Davis? It looks entirely possible. Will he talk about it? Matt interviews Bill from prison, and things get a little dicey.

The Fairbanks Four, having been in prison for over fifteen years, are granted a new trial. Old forces reunite, does history repeat itself?

Out of nowhere – well, not exactly out of nowhere – a guy already in prison for other murders in California confesses to being involved in the John Hartman beating – but does he have ulterior motives? Also, another crew of murderers affiliated with Chris Stone seem to skate under the radar. Apparently Fairbanks was teeming with murderers this night.

An eyewitness testifies that he saw the Fairbanks Four assault another person minutes before John Hartman was beaten to death, his credibility comes into question, as police conduct a questionable investigation. Whose back is being scratched here exactly?

Chris Stone seems to be given a free pass, as charges are brought quickly against the Fairbanks Four, they don't have much time left to figure out the truth. Snitches come out of the woodwork implicating George, Eugene, Kevin, and Marvin.
