What Could Justify Killing? / Monika Zumsteg / Michael Telling - Part 1

There are two sides to every coin, like there are two sides to every story. A headless body is found in the undergrowth of a natural beauty spot in Devon. Police soon find the culprit, who openly admits that he carried out the killing. However, not everything is, as it seems… or perhaps it is? (Part 1 of 2).
