This is one of Lifetime's best true story murder stories because it's followed
by a custody battle.
The point of view is from the sister of a woman who marries a dentist who murders her. The dentist blames the victim but goes to jail. Then his hateful parents fight for custody of the couple's baby with the dead woman's sister.
There is a memorable scene involving luminol. The actors are good. Valerie Bertinelli is sympathetic as the sister fighting for custody. Chris Meloni plays her husband. Michael Ontkean is so good as the murderous man that this image comes to mind in his subsequent roles. The woman who plays his mother is effectively hateful.
Still good after many years.
