In watching Cold Case Files last Saturday on A&E, I was remined of another similar case on American Justice, also on A&E, I watch some time ago.
Both stories were of the same plot. A person somehow got away with murder but the remains of the crime showed after more than 30 years. The investigators track the the person down, made a visit to his house, and questioned him. Before even going further, within 24 hours, the criminal committed suicide. Case closed.
It's like that person has been been waiting for that discovery to happen. Like it's a monster looming over his shoulder ready to attack at anytime. The discovery is the end of the saga of his long-buried secret. And his conscience has not made his life better by his escape. Living with guilt and on the edge is not the way to live at all. It's your punishment on Earth.
About TVmomma:
I created this blog a few years back when I used to watch television 14 hours a day. I was getting highly-opinionated with what I see on TV and I wanted to spare my husband from my rantings so I thought of blogging about them instead.
I have called TV as my amusement park -- right in my own home. But now, things have changed and my TV viewing has been limited. I still post on this blog but only when I felt so strongly about what I've seen, and when I have the time.
For reprint and for anything else, please leave a message on the comment area. Thank you.
