In the first part of this two-part episode Caroline tells Jane about the despicable Pam Hupp. When Betsy Faria is found brutally murdered in her own home, police immediately suspect her husband, Russ, despite the fact that he has an alibi for the time of the murder. The focus on Russ allows the truly evil actual murderer, Pam Hupp, to hide in plain sight.

Caroline tells Jane about the mysterious Sharp Family Murders. On April 11, 1981, 14-year-old Sheila Sharp came home from a sleepover to find her single-mother, brother, and her brother's friend brutally murdered. Police soon realize her younger sister was also missing. Although it remains unsolved, there are many plausible theories about what really happened that night.

Jane tells Caroline about the murder of Bobby Kent. Bobby Kent and Marty Puccio grew up on the same block in Hollywood, Florida, and many people considered them best friends....by most accounts, however, Bobby was a relentless bully who used physical force and manipulation to control Marty and harass many others. Ultimately at the age of 20 Bobby ends up dead and Marty along with six others face serious murder charges. This case is complex, controversial, and raises a lot of tough ethical questions.

First, Caroline gives Jane an update on the Brandon Lawson case.

Then, Caroline tells Jane about the murder of Alfred Bloomingdales' long-time mistress, Vicki Morgan. After an initial confession from one of Vicki's close friends, it seems like the case is closed, but right beneath the surface of this case lays the seedy underbelly of LA and with key players tied to politics, corruption, and fame, the door is wide open to myriad conspiracies about what really happened to the beautiful strong Vicki.
