In this episode of 48 Hours, titled "7/28: 48 Hours 9 PM," viewers are taken on a journey through a chilling murder case in which a California man is accused of killing his wife and then blaming it on their son. On July 28, 2012, a tragic and senseless crime occurred in the sleepy town of West Hills, California, when a mother was murdered in her own home.

The victim, Julia Edwards, was a 53-year-old woman who had been married for 29 years to her husband, Rob. They had two children together, and everything seemed to be going well in their lives. But on that fateful day, their son called the police to report a shooting at their home. When the police arrived, they found Julia dead in her bedroom, shot multiple times with a .38 caliber revolver.

Initially, the police believed that the killer might be an intruder who had broken into the family's home. However, the crime scene investigation quickly revealed that there was no sign of forced entry and that the gun used to kill Julia had been taken from a locked safe in the home. It soon became clear to investigators that the killer was someone who had access to the home and knew where the gun was kept.

Suspicions soon fell on Rob Edwards, Julia's husband, who had a history of domestic violence. Rob initially denied any involvement in his wife's murder, and instead pointed the finger at his son, who he claimed had been acting strangely in the weeks leading up to the murder. Rob claimed that his son had been threatening him and his wife, and that he believed his son was responsible for the murder.

As the investigation continued, however, detectives began to uncover a different story. They learned that Rob had been having an affair with a younger woman and had been planning to leave his wife. They also discovered that Rob had purchased ammunition for the murder weapon just days before the killing.

The evidence against Rob continued to mount, and he was eventually arrested and charged with the murder of his wife. At trial, the prosecution presented a compelling case, arguing that Rob had killed his wife in order to be with his younger lover and then tried to blame it on his son.

The defense, however, argued that Rob's son was the real killer, and that Rob had only tried to cover for him in order to protect his family. The trial was intense and emotional, with both sides presenting compelling arguments. In the end, the jury was left to sort out the truth from the lies.

"7/28: 48 Hours 9 PM" is a gripping episode of 48 Hours that will keep viewers on the edge of their seats. It is a story of love and betrayal, of family ties that are tested to the breaking point, and of the quest for justice in a case where nothing is as it seems. Will Rob be found guilty of his wife's murder, or will his son be convicted of the crime? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain: this is a case that will haunt the town of West Hills for years to come.
