In this episode, we discuss what happened after David was arrested for the murder of his family. David was traveling at the time the family died, so why was he arrested? What evidence did law enforcement have to come to this conclusion? Why would they even focus in on a man so devoted to his faith?

It all boiled down to....the stomach contents!!

Will David be found guilty?
