Ep 5. He Said, She Said (Vigo County, IN)

In season 2, episode 5 of Cold Justice, titled "He Said, She Said (Vigo County, IN)," former prosecutor Kelly Siegler and former crime scene investigator Yolanda McClary travel to Terre Haute, Indiana to investigate the 1998 murder of Scott Kimbler.

Kimbler, a truck driver, was found dead in his semi-truck cab with a single gunshot wound to his head. The murder weapon was never found, and the case went cold for over a decade before a witness came forward and named two suspects: Kimbler's girlfriend, Lisa Bazil, and her ex-husband, Kevin Hughes.

Despite the witness testimony, the case had never gone to trial. The Vigo County prosecutor's office had declined to prosecute, citing a lack of evidence. But with the help of Siegler and McClary, the Vigo County Sheriff's Office re-opened the case and brought in the Cold Justice team to help with the investigation.

The episode follows the team as they re-examine the evidence and interview witnesses, trying to determine what really happened the night Kimbler was killed. As they dig deeper, they find that there are conflicting stories about what took place, with each suspect pointing the finger at the other.

Bazil claims that she had nothing to do with Kimbler's murder, and that she was asleep in her apartment when it happened. She says that Hughes, who she had been divorced from for two years at the time of the murder, was the one who had a motive to kill Kimbler. Hughes, on the other hand, says that Bazil was the one who wanted Kimbler dead, and that he had nothing to do with it.

As the Cold Justice team continues to investigate, they uncover new evidence that helps shed light on what really happened. They also encounter resistance from some of the witnesses, who are still afraid to come forward after all these years.

In the end, Siegler and McClary present their findings to the Vigo County prosecutor's office and make a recommendation on whether or not to pursue charges against the suspects. The decision is ultimately up to the prosecutor, but the Cold Justice team hopes that their work will help bring justice to Scott Kimbler and his family.

Overall, "He Said, She Said (Vigo County, IN)" is a compelling episode of Cold Justice that highlights the complexities of investigating a cold case. With its mix of new interviews and old evidence, the episode keeps viewers engaged as they try to solve the mystery of who killed Scott Kimbler.
