Richard Merritt

After eight months on the run, disgraced personal-injury attorney Richard Merritt faces trial for the brutal murder of his 77-year-old mother, Shirley. The prosecution paints Richard as a narcissistic manipulator who murdered his mother and disappeared, but the defense claims Shirley was murdered in an act of revenge by Richard's previous fraud victims. Will jurors believe Merritt's story, or will he spend the rest of his life in prison?
