Episode Details

A man on trial for allegedly setting his grandmother and uncle on fire is painting a shocking alternate picture: he claims his uncle accidentally ignited himself during a heated argument in 2023, then ran into his grandmother, causing both to catch fire. Richardson says he wasn’t living at the house, stopped by to argue about his grandma’s deteriorating home, and was attacked with gasoline — which exploded mid-air as his uncle tried to throw it. He insists he tried to save them before rushing his grandmother to the hospital. The prosecution pushes back, questioning his alibi and highlighting a prior feud over his dogs. His friend backs up his story. With the defense resting, the jury now faces a tense choice: believe the defendant’s dramatic tale or the uncle’s original accusation.
