City Homicide

Episode 51

Tabitha Mailer tried everything to lose weight. Her latest effort was Easyshake - a quick fix that became a quick kill when she swallowed a laced dosage. Her violent and unnecessary death leads Homicide to a small Health Food Store with a big problem.

Allie: Vern Gilbert’s not a chemist. He prances around in a labcoat, but that’s about the sum of his credentials. Maybe he added the wrong ingredients to his magic formula.

Society has long preyed on the hopes and insecurities of overweight women, but what if your loved ones are making a profit from your pain? A con man has found a way to exploit the vulnerabilities of these women but has he stooped to murder to cover his tracks?

Homicide’s investigation soon expands to incorporate weight-loss groups, disgruntled employees and spurned women. With money and self-image at the heart of the case, there’s sure to be passion behind the murder – but is it anger or love driving the killer?
