Hearsay in the Hive

The case against him looks airtight.

Gordon Ashby spent 40 years building the finest honey farm in the county. Then he developed a deadly bee allergy, and at his own 70th birthday party, someone swapped his epinephrine pen for a fake. He died before the ambulance reached the hospital.

The police arrested his son Wade: broke, bitter, and set to inherit everything. The case against him looks airtight. Your job is to tear it apart.

As Wade's defense team, you'll comb through crime lab photos, 911 transcripts, text messages, a bartender's napkin, and the victim's last words. Then you'll rule on the objections that decide what the jury hears. Make the right calls and the real killer comes into focus. Rule by gut instinct, and an innocent man goes down for murder.
