Perry Mason and Motive For Murder

HBO is out with a reboot of “Perry Mason.” But this time, Mason is not a 1950s defense attorney. Instead, he’s a 1930s private eye, working for a lawyer and investigating the case of a kidnapping-gone-wrong. Will Mason find the answers in Hollywood’s underbelly...and will he get the case-clearing confession the character is known for?

In 2012, Gelareh Bagherzadeh was shot in her car outside her home. Police were stumped not only as to who the killer was, but why someone would want the graduate student and political activist dead. Dateline and NBC News are back with the new podcast “Motive for Murder.”
