Making a Murderer….but with a woman.
Beyond a reasonable doubt… that's what jurors are told when looking at a case, not to decide the defendant is guilty unless it is proven beyond a reasonable doubt.
So how does a jury convict a woman for 27 years with no physical evidence proving she committed the crime? No witnesses? No motives?
How do they know beyond a reasonable doubt that she is guilty? Because the police built a case before they even started an investigation.
From the moment detectives arrived at the home of Jamie(Jim) and Sandra Melgar they knew who had killed Jim… Sandra.
