It was a quiet autumn day at a residential leasing office in Anchorage Alaska, when the peace was shattered by the sound of gunshots. As emergency responders raced to the scene, they found one man lying dead, and a suspect that had seemingly vanished. Why had Josiah Goecker, a beloved family man, been ruthlessly gunned down while at work? And where was the person who killed him? 

Written by Jess Thomas, Edited & Engineered by Scott Ecklein, and Executive Produced by Michael Ojibway.
