The Preppy Murder: Death in Central Park

The NYPD identifies a dead girl in Central Park as Jennifer Levin; the search for her killer leads to her prep school friend Robert Chambers.

Robert confesses he killed Jennifer Levin accidentally during rough sex.

Robert's preppy persona begins to crumble; when the church steps in to support Robert, the judge releases him on bail

The media jumps on the defense's strategy to make Jennifer seem fast and loose; the prosecution works to establish motive.

Both sides present their cases; jurors are mesmerized by Robert's charisma; afraid Robert has charmed them, the prosecution offers a plea deal.
