Episode Details

Jury selection has begun in Bartow for the trial of Tony Wiggins, accused of a brutal 2020 triple murder near Frostproof. Prosecutors claim he ambushed three friends during a fishing trip after overhearing their plans at a Dollar General, then followed them to a lake where he allegedly opened fire. Forensic evidence — including a shell casing found at his trailer — is central to the case. The victims were shot multiple times inside a truck, and their families seek justice and closure. If convicted of first-degree murder, Wiggins could face the death penalty. The defense’s strategy remains undisclosed, and jury selection may take longer than expected. This high-stakes trial could stretch over five weeks and will deeply affect the community.
