82. On the Level: The Murder of Eric Nelams
Eric Nelams was on his way to work one morning in 2003. He walked out of his house and headed toward his car, but the peaceful morning routine was shattered by the sound of gunshots.

Questions swirled about the motive behind the senseless act, and speculation ran rampant about who could have committed such a heinous crime. Was this a robbery gone wrong? A random act?
