I love Murder she wrote, and I watch it daily. Jessica Fletcher is kind, warm, brilliant, lojal, charming, trustworthy, full of integrity and well spoken. In every epsiode but this.
A young man has spent 20 years in prison for a murder he had no involvment in. When he is released, of course he wants to find the real killer. He was only a teenager when he was arrested, hence we can only imagine the horror he has lived through these last 20 years. Everyone would be sympathetic.
Everyone but Jessica. She thinks its wrong of him to come to Cabot Cove, because it may upset her dear friends. Even when all is over, the real killer from all those years ago is caught, and the innocent man can finally have some peace of mind, Jessica scolds him for finding out the truth. The very last scene is of her looking sad and angry with the poor man.
I have no idea how this revolting episode slipped through the net, it makes Jessica look like a psychopathic monster.
