In Cold Justice season 6 episode 19, titled Burning Mystery, the team travels to small town Kentucky to investigate the case of a young woman named Leslie Cox.

While it was initially ruled an accident, new evidence has come to light that could suggest foul play.
The prosecution's theory is that Leslie's estranged husband, Jerry Cox, orchestrated her murder in order to collect on an insurance policy.

With the help of local law enforcement, the team conducts interviews and reenactments to piece together the events of the night of Leslie's death. They also explore the possibility that someone else may have been involved in the crime. One potential suspect is a man who was seen in the area around the time of the fire.
As the team digs deeper, they encounter resistance from some members of the community who are unwilling to talk. They also uncover evidence that suggests a cover-up may have taken place in the initial investigation. Despite these challenges, the team perseveres and ultimately uncovers some shocking revelations about what really happened to Leslie Cox.
