Had the victim in this case not been a celebrity this case would have been routinely closed. But because she was a celebrity is the reason this incident
happened in the first place.
A prominent woman attorney is run down and killed by a car as she ran out into the street. She was being chased the way Princess Diana was by a scandalmongering tabloid reporter. Sad, but case closed.
Not for her grieving husband Timothy Carhart. The reporter is still fishing for a story about their child and when he won't quit Carhart shoots him. That gets closed with an arrest of a perpetrator who can't wait for a day in court to tell his story.
Joe Mantello the victim was a particularly rancid specimen of human being. Still while crossed the bounds of decency he was doing nothing illegal.
The show explores the issue of free speech and the public's right to know versus that of one's privacy. Maybe we are lucky that 99% of us lead such obscure lives the vast majority doesn't care.
The verdict is an interesting one.
