Deception (2x4)

:

Coroner Dr. Matthews (Corbin Bernsen) is murdered by a construction worker named Diane (Erica Cerra). Her husband, Brad Hitchens, was in jail and Matthews was testifying in his case. Dr. Rogers takes his place in Hitchens' trial, only to learn Matthews actually lied about the evidence and was testifying to send the innocent Hitchens to jail for a crime he did not commit. Matthews had been taking the law into his own hands, after his granddaughter drowned and nothing had been done to those responsible for her. Meanwhile, Hitchens gets killed in prison.
