The Last Meal (S04E07)

Disbarred lawyer Richard Merritt planned to enjoy one final home-cooked dinner with his mother before heading to prison for embezzlement. However, he failed to arrive as scheduled, and his ankle monitor was discovered to be severed. The following day, family members stumbled upon his mother’s lifeless body, brutally stabbed in her home's basement. Eight months later, Merritt was located in Nashville, Tennessee, living under a false identity. When the murder trial commenced four years later, he asserted that an intruder had assaulted them both, forcing him to escape for his own safety.
