Michael Finkel

You do?

I do.

One of the many things Finkel revealed was that his relationship with Jill was starting up again.

He was actually giving you advice.

Oh, yes.

Relationship advice.

So he gave him good advice.

In fact, a friend is exactly what Longo had become.

Against his better judgment, part of Finkel was hoping that Longo would not be found guilty.

Why did you want him to be innocent?

Longo had yet to explain how his entire family had ended up dead.

And with the trial now looming, Finkel began to wonder if he'd been conned like everybody else.

One year after his arrest, Christian Longo is about to stand trial for murdering his wife, Mary Jane, and their three children.

Mary Jane's sisters, Penny and Sally, vow to be in court every day.

Did you have any doubts whatsoever that he was responsible?

None.

Reporter Michael Finkel will be there too, eager to hear Longo's theory of the crime.

It is one promise that Longo keeps.

On Valentine's Day 2003, the proceedings begin with a bombshell.

Longo pleads guilty.
