Episode Details

A chilling murder trial unfolds in Santa Fe as 25-year-old Isaac Apodaca faces first-degree murder charges for allegedly orchestrating the 2022 killing of 21-year-old Grace Jennings with a sword. His 19-year-old girlfriend, Kiara McCulley — now a key witness — pleaded guilty in February to aggravated murder and conspiracy, admitting her role in the plot. Text messages and evidence suggest Apodaca manipulated McCulley into carrying out the crime. As the trial heats up, the prosecution’s case hinges on proving Apodaca’s deliberate planning — and whether McCulley’s testimony will hold up under cross-examination.
