Disturbing on several levels.
planktonrules16 January 2015
This installment of PBS's "Frontline" is about a death that occurred in St. Augustine, Florida a few years ago. A young woman was found dead of a gunshot wound and it was almost immediately assumed to be a suicide--even though there was ample reason to believe she'd been murdered. Heck, she's even told folks that she thought her boyfriend might kill her AND that she was planning on breaking up on him the very day she was found dead!! So why wasn't he arrested? Perhaps it is because he's a deputy working for the local police department! Considering the way that the department acted and the way the filmmakers present their findings, it makes for a damning and very disturbing case. It's disturbing because of the nature of the killing (and some of the photos are very hard to see) and because you don't want to think that your own police force might help to cover up a murder! All in all, very well made and very sad.
