| Plot Summary of Dead By Sunset |
"An innocent bystander comes accross a minivan on Sunset Hwy that had crashed into the divider. To his surprise he found a dead women inside and a carseat for a child. He called the police to the scene who then realized she had been murdered.
During the trial process there would be no physical evidence linking her ex-husband Brad Cunningham to the murder. There is a lot of questions whether he abused his sons. He remarried and his new wife adopted their three sons. Was the marriage going to have a happy ending or was it another twisted scam?"
