One Of The Best Episodes

I thought this was one of the better episodes of the season: a taut, tense thriller right from the beginning. It also had so many twists and turns - one of them a real shocker - that it kept your attention. Watching this on DVD, I had to re-play a couple of scenes just to catch up with what was happening and things get a little convoluted.....but it's a great story.

A cop who had been convicted of killing his wife, himself is killed days before a new hearing is scheduled. Most people are still convinced he did, indeed, kill his beautiful-but-very-loose wife (she had slept with many cops)......but still, something is not right. He left an intriguing "list" behind, one that includes characters we CSI fans are very familiar with. As more and more facts come to life, some CSI folks think he could have been innocent.

This episode will definitely get and keep your attention.
