Episode Details

Hours before Keith Caneiro and his entire family were killed, he made two phone calls to his brother Paul demanding answers about missing money. The jury heard those calls this week. Keith's voice is furious: "I need to know where that money went." And then: "Give me the f---ing login, Paul!" He gave Paul a deadline — two hours. Paul never responded. By morning, prosecutors say, Keith was dead on his front lawn with five gunshot wounds. His wife was dead inside, shot and stabbed. His two children — ages 8 and 11 — had been stabbed repeatedly and left to die of smoke inhalation as the house burned around them.

The Paul Caneiro trial is now in its fourth day in Monmouth County, and the picture emerging is devastating. Prosecutors have presented evidence of a man allegedly living a fantasy — three Porsches, Tiffany's shopping sprees, an Audi for a mistress — while overdrafting his bank accounts and draining his brother's life insurance trust. Detective testimony revealed that bank statements Paul provided to the family accountant had been altered to hide the theft.

Witnesses have described the scene at Paul's own house fire that morning: a gas can in the driveway, burn marks on his Porsche, the family sitting calmly in a car while firefighters worked. When police asked Paul where his security DVR was, testimony says he didn't answer — he looked to his daughter. That footage, showing Paul disconnecting his cameras at 1:28 AM, is now in evidence after the New Jersey Supreme Court ruled it admissible.

Paul Caneiro maintains his innocence. His defense points to a third brother. But the evidence prosecutors are laying out tells a different story — of a man who allegedly couldn't admit failure, and killed everyone who knew the truth.
