"A Father's Story" -- Annabeth seeks the death penalty for a man who takes justice into his own hands by attempting to gun down his son-in-law after he is acquitted of murdering his daughter; however, he misses his target and accidentally wounds defense attorney Doug Hellman and kills his associate, on CLOSE TO HOME, Friday, Nov. 24 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. The episode was directed by Mike Rohl from a script by Elwood Reid.

The case takes a turn when Annabeth discovers that the initial murder trial of the son-in-law may have been mismanaged by someone in her department.
