00:00There's a video, 48 seconds long, shot casually on a phone, shaky camera, dogs barking in the
00:07background, voices overlapping the way they do when nobody's paying attention to the recording.
00:11The kind of video families make every single day and forget about. In it, a young man and his father
00:18are walking around their property in South Carolina. They're laughing about a tree, not money,
00:24not legal problems, not the pressure slowly building around their family, just a tree that
00:29grew sideways. That video was recorded at 8.44 p.m. on June 7th, 2021. Less than an hour later,
00:37that young man was dead, and so was his mother, found nearby, shot multiple times.
