42:53Now PlayingJanuary 31, 2013, a 911 call comes in. The caller tells the operator that a man has been shot. Police find Chief Assistant District Attorney for the Kaufman County Criminal District Attorney's Office, Mark Hasse bleeding. The only evidence, eyewitnesses. One witness said the shooter was completely dressed in black, and after firing the shots, jumped into the back seat of the white sedan and disappeared. Another witness said he heard Hasse shouting loudly “No, no, I’m sorry.” Hasse dies.
Just two months after Assistant District Attorney Mark Hasse is gunned down, Kaufman County Criminal District Attorney Mike McLelland, and his wife, Cynthia McLelland, are both found shot dead in their home. The scene was described as a "home invasion" style assault.
Mark Hasse and Mark McLelland acted as prosecutors in former judge Eric Williams' felony theft Case. That history put him on police radar. When officers checked his internet search history, they found that Williams had been actively searching for information on Mark Hasse and Mike McLelland. Documents were found on a white sedan and the login for an account that had been leaving anonymous messages for police about the murders was found, but there was not enough evidence to charge him with the murders.
Then came a break. An acquaintance of Eric Williams’ says that he had been asked to rent a garage in his name. Police find the white sedan in the garage, as well as police uniforms, badges, weapons, and even homemade napalm. There were also more than 30 guns, but no weapon matching the one that shot the victims. And there was still one question to be answered. If the suspect jumped into the back seat to speed away from the crime scene, who was driving?
Kim Williams, Eric Williams' wife, was driving. She confesses to the police and the pair are convicted. Eric Williams gets the death penalty, which he has appealed repeatedly.
