Summary

23 years after fashion student Ashley Ellerin's life was senselessly taken, new questions emerge that call into question whether the suspect could have been stopped before more lives were lost. Was a lie told by actor Ashton Kutcher the reason Michael Garguilo remained free to kill again? Was incompetence at the hands of Cook County Illinois law enforcement to blame? Or were there TWO missed opportunities to stop this monster? In today's special investigative episode, Jac and Alexis pour over all the details, and most importantly, punctuate the real issue at the heart of the matter, a society apathetic to violence against women.
