On the morning of July 11, 2002, 16-year-old Alyssa McGhee was jolted awake by the sound of a gunshot and her father’s scream. She rushed into the living room and found 45-year-old JC McGhee lying on the floor, covered in blood.
Minutes later, just next door, JC’s nephew Omar Foston called 911 to report that his house had been invaded, his family had been tied up, and his attackers were still inside. As police arrived to investigate, they quickly realized this wasn’t your average robbery gone wrong—there were layers to this case, from a high-stakes custody battle to JC’s work as a confidential informant. And as investigators dug deeper, it became clear that there were several possible suspects, including family members.
