Ep 21. Trajectory

In season 3, episode 21 of Cold Justice, titled "Trajectory," former prosecutor Kelly Siegler and her team of investigators travel to Vigo County, Indiana to take on the case of a man named Jason Wilkey who was shot and left for dead in his own home in 1996. The case had gone cold for over two decades and despite the police having a number of leads, they were never able to solve the crime.

The team quickly begins digging into the case, interviewing witnesses and looking for any new evidence that may have come to light since the investigation went cold. They discover that Jason was a relatively well-known local businessman and that he had been shot multiple times at close range. There was no sign of forced entry into the home, leading investigators to believe that the killer was someone Jason knew.

The team looks at a number of potential suspects, including Jason's ex-wife, his business partner, and a former employee who had recently been fired. They also analyze the gun used in the murder and try to trace its origin. As they work their way through the case, the team realizes that the investigation had been mishandled in a number of ways.

Despite these setbacks, the team perseveres, finding new witnesses and piecing together a timeline of events that could potentially lead them to the killer. They also discover that Jason was involved in a number of shady business deals prior to his murder, leading them to believe that his death may have been related to these dealings.

As the team gets closer to solving the case, they face a number of challenges, including uncooperative witnesses and a lack of physical evidence. Despite this, they remain committed to finding justice for Jason and his family.

In the end, the team presents their findings to the Vigo County prosecutor and recommend charges against the suspected killer. Whether or not justice is finally served for Jason Wilkey remains to be seen, but the team's tireless efforts ensure that the case is no longer cold and that the truth about what happened to Jason will finally be revealed.
