The film spotlights the surveillance and digital trail that investigators say exposed the plot.

Overview

  • Jennifer Faith pleaded guilty to murder-for-hire in 2022 and is serving a life sentence, with a $250,000 fine and $6,500 restitution ordered.
  • Darrin Lopez was convicted by a jury in July 2023 and received a 62-year prison sentence, and he continues to pursue an appeal.
  • Jamie Faith was shot seven times outside his Dallas home in 2020 by a masked attacker who fled in a black truck with a distinctive “T” decal.
