48 Hours Season 36 Episode 12 The Journals of Maria Mu?oz
- December 16, 2023
In the early morning of Sept. 22, 2020, police officer Gregorio De La Cruz responded to a call at a home in Laredo, Texas. At the top of the stairs of the house, Joel Pellot, dressed in surgical scrubs, was performing CPR on his wife, Maria Mu?oz. Paramedics and police jumped in to help, but at 3:58 AM, less than three hours after Joel Pellot had called 9-1-1, 31-year-old Maria Mu?oz was declared dead inside their home. Was Maria's death a suicide, an accident or a murder? Authorities turned to her journals for help.
