This episode centers around the small town of Brownwood, Texas, known for its corruption and deeply rooted issues of racism and homophobia. The focus is on the murder of Leon Laureles, who was a beloved member of his family and community. Leon was a caring and giving person, known for his passion for cooking and music. On the day of his murder, Leon's car was found engulfed in flames, and his body was discovered nearby. Leon was shot execution style. His niece, Arlene, and the rest of his family have been fighting for justice and accountability, trying to uncover the truth behind his cold case and the mishandling of the investigation. The town's culture of fear and silence makes it difficult for witnesses to speak up, leaving Leon's family in agony, longing for justice and closure.
