Julio's defense alleges mitigating circumstances because he financially supports his whole family, who will be at risk if he is deported. Connie is sympathetic to him but [=McCoy=] thinks she's getting too personally involved. The sound engineer comes back into the frame with new evidence, and the [=DAs=] must now decide which suspect to charge. Connie finds out Easton was also at Garrett's apartment on the day of her murder. His company makes millions of dollars per year using illegal labor, so he'd have a lot to lose if she reported him. But Julio, whose cousins also work for the company, refuses to implicate Easton.

[=McCoy=] orders an immigration raid on the company and uses Julio's family as leverage against him. Connie kindly tells Julio that he's the only person who can get justice for Garrett, and asks him for the full story. Julio says that after he pushed Garrett, he went to Easton for help. Easton went to Garrett's apartment alone, and later said he'd "taken care" of her; he threatened to fire Julio's cousins if Julio told anyone. With the threat of a life sentence, and having his profits seized as the proceeds of criminal activity, Easton takes a plea deal and will serve 15 years in jail.

Erin Garrett, an actress and director, is found hanged in her apartment. She had recently directed a controversial movie about abuse of women under Islam, which could be a motive for murder; a Muslim sound engineer who worked on the movie becomes a suspect. However, evidence points to Julio Rodriguez, an undocumented construction worker at her apartment building. He confesses that Garrett threatened to report him for working illegally, so he pushed her and she hit her head. He denies staging her death to look like a suicide.
Julio's defense alleges mitigating circumstances because he financially supports his whole family, who will be at risk if he is deported. Connie is sympathetic to him but [=McCoy=] thinks she's getting too personally involved. The sound engineer comes back into the frame with new evidence, and the [=DAs=] must now decide which suspect to charge. Connie finds out Easton was also at Garrett's apartment on the day of her murder. His company makes millions of dollars per year using illegal labor, so he'd have a lot to lose if she reported him. But Julio, whose cousins also work for the company, refuses to implicate Easton.
