      The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder
    • 2007

      Le 11 décembre 1966, un meurtre est commis dans la banlieue de Los Angeles. La victime est un jeune homme tranquille, sans ennemi connu. Il a été tué de cinq balles à bout portant et sa maison incendiée. Pas de suspect, pas d'arme du crime, pas d'indice, pas de témoin juste une police d'assurance sur la vie souscrite au nom de sa femme. Seize mois plus tard une jeune femme est trouvée assassinée dans le parking d'une résidence de luxe. Là encore aucun indice. Mais une police d'assurance sur la vie souscrite au nom de son mari. Les enquêteurs découvrent quelques éléments : notes dans un agenda, écoutes téléphoniques, transactions bancaires prouvant la collusion de la femme de l'un avec le mari de l'autre. Ce sera le départ d'une enquête et d'un procès qui engendreront tant de tensions et de rebondissements que la réalité, comme d'habitude, dépasse la fiction.
