Jason Young was three hours away when his wife was murdered. Receipts, surveillance footage, phone records—on paper, everything checks out. He was exactly where he said he was.

But the more investigators dig in, the more that story starts to fall apart.

There’s a gap in the timeline no one can fully explain. A security camera that was tampered with. A strange stop at a gas station that raises more questions than answers. And piece by piece, it starts to look less like coincidence… and more like something planned.

As more comes to light—affairs, money, a marriage that was clearly struggling—the question becomes harder and harder to ignore:

Was this a solid alibi… or something much more calculated?
