Quote

The 2010 murder of NBA player Lorenzen Wight is investigated.

I used to live in Memphis (most of my adult life) so this episode brought back memories. I always thought Sherra did it. That interview she did with April did her no favors. I think Lorenzen had a good heart. The curse of too much fame and fortune at an early age struck him as it does many people. 

I chuckled at Germantown being referred to as a suburb of Memphis. I’m sure they loved that! ?

I assumed it was the wife as soon as she said he left "a box of drugs", perhaps it's because I watch too many crime shows but it's never a box, always a bag! I am sort of joking but it just rang false.

They clearly didn't have a financial planner but I was shocked that his life insurance was only $1,000,000, they has six fairly young children. 

The only question I wanted answered was how they mishandled the 911 call so badly.

Yeah, what the hell was that about?  I hope it's being thoroughly investigated and we'll hear something new when 48 Hours does an update on this case.

The look on her face when she flashed the watch and the ring , saying that one could be sold to buy a house and the other to buy a car, was smug as hell. She looked like the cat that ate the canary.

I thought it was the wife as soon as she started flashing her ring to the reporter and bragging about how much it was worth.

The Germantown PD dropped the ball on the 911 call.
