Speaker 2: Midsummer, the longest day of the year. Where better to be than Malibu? Near the beaches with their famous surf breaks, in a wooded campground surrounded by rugged mountain peaks. You build a roaring fire. You teach your kids about the stars. Then, when it's finally time for bed, you sling them over your shoulders and tuck them into the safety of the tent. You tell yourself the little noises you hear are nothing. A scuttle, a too-close cough, footsteps, normal campground stuff. If the children start to wake up, you snuggle them back to sleep. The moon slips below the horizon. The night is finally fully dark, and you start to drift off. Then, sometime around dawn, June 22, 2018, 4.43 in the morning, inside a tent at Malibu Creek State Park, a man named Tristan Beaudet, with his two kids asleep next to him, is shot in the head. He's killed instantly. The Malibu cops follow a crumb trail of clues and find a survivalist camping in the woods. They arrest him and charge him with a slew of shootings, including the killing of Tristan Beaudet. And that's when things get complicated.

Speaker 1: He was captured on video here as an armed suspect. Of course they knew who he was because he's a plant.
00:02:14
Speaker 2: There's something wrong.
00:02:16
Speaker 3: This kid didn't do it.
00:02:16
Speaker 2: He's crazy.
00:02:17
Speaker 3: I don't give a shit. I want to speak. You don't have a right to speak. Fuck you. Y'all didn't understand that?
