TENTANG EPISODE INI
Costa Mesa in 2010 was a city in Southern California with a population of around 110,000 with a reputation for being diverse and ever evolving. Sam Herr, a war veteran and Julie Kibuishi, an aspiring fashion stylist were attending Orange Coast College. The two became close, platonic friends rather quickly. Sam, a loyal goof ball to his friends and Julie, vivacious, smart and dependable. When their parents couldn’t reach either of them one day in May 2010, they all became severely worried. Steven, Sam’s father made a horrific discovery at his son’s apartment – Julie had been murdered. But Sam was no where to be found. The crime didn’t make sense to any one who knew Sam. After days of searching, evidence led them to one of his neighbor’s an aspiring actor. When questioned, it seemed to be more of a performance by the neighbor rather than an interrogation. After 14 hours, detectives finally coaxed the truth out of this neighbor. Tune in to hear of Julie and Sam, and how their lives came to end so senselessly.
