True Crime: The Unexplained Death of a Nigel Bom: The Storm Breaks (Episode 12)
Episode 12 examines the strength of claims made against the suspects vis-a-vis their involvement in Nigel's death and we begin to look at the pathologist's report regarding Methamphetamine usage.
Krystal had two groups in her sights with links to her brother Nigel’s death. Like facing a multi-headed hydra emerging from the Travis Wetlands, the scale of sinister clues and the web of deceit coming into her possession had left her bewildered.
