“The Evidence Room.” The state of Ohio. New Year’s Eve 2014. Colleen McKernan shot her husband Rob 10 times and killed him. She claimed self-defense after being charged with murder. Scott Roder is an animation specialist who constructs evidence of crime scenes. He was hired by Colleen’s defense attorney to build evidence in her murder case. She is the only eye witness after gunning down her husband. Prosecutors say that she planned to kill Rob for his life insurance which was worth $200,000. 

The defense says that Colleen only held the gun and was going to leave a domestic quarrel. Prosecutors say that it was actually Rob who was going to leave. He was dressed to do so. That’s when she shot him. Colleen served in the Air force and held two “guns” on her wedding day. Rob had been charged before with domestic violence. They were married for less than a year. Scott’s team looked at Colleen’s "state of mind" right from the moment she unloaded that first bullet. She had shot Rob so close that the gun powder splattered across his face.

Scott says that if Colleen shot Rob in the face first. It was self-defense. Prosecutors say that it was murder because she shot him in the back first. What does the evidence say to the jury?

'The Nile Hilton Incident' is excellent murder mystery

THE NILE HILTON INCIDENT is an ATMO PRODUCTION. You can watch it over at "YouTube" for only $3.99

I heard about this murder mystery and I'm glad I found it. I was absolutely "glued" to it from start to finish. Check it out because you will not be disappointed.

It's based on a true story involving police commander Noredin Mostafa at Cairo, Egypt. A Sudanese maid witnessed a murder at a hotel. A singer/model is the victim and she's connected to a popular politician. From the start, we follow Noredin's every move in this murder case. The death is ruled a suicide, but changes to homicide after incriminating photos land in Noredin's hands. We see his thoughts about everything around him and it is fascinating...,

The maid's life is in danger and she disappears on the streets. The police believe she has been killed. Noredin is sucked into something darker after he has a "one-night-stand" with another female singer. It seems that he is the only one good cop. A revolution against the government begins and covers the murder case. It becomes bigger than Noredin who fights hard to separate good from evil. 

The movie has English "subtitles" and the film soundtrack is fantastic. I can't wait for it to come out on BluRay.
