From a troubled Hollywood childhood to a volatile marriage, a quiet Los Angeles street, and one of the most controversial celebrity trials in American history, this episode explores fame, motive, power, and doubt.

Blake was acquitted in criminal court, yet found liable in a civil trial, leaving behind a case that still divides the public. With no conviction and lingering questions, the mystery remains officially unsolved.
