The Murder of Yasheeka "Mouda" Grant (Connecticut)

What started with a call to police for a domestic disturbance ended with a four-day manhunt in search of a suspected killer. When that suspect, the victim’s husband, was finally apprehended, it seemed on the surface like an open-and-shut case. All signs pointed to a domestic violence homicide triggered by the dissolution of an already tumultuous and violent marriage.

But then the case went to trial and the accused killer told his side of the story for the first time… And the prosecution took major issue with all of it.
