The Tommy Ziegler quadruple homicide that took place here in Central Florida almost 50 years ago, is preparing to reenter the national spotlight. Ziegler is currently on deathrow.
Crime Scene Confidential on Investigation Discovery will air “Four Murders and a Death Sentence,” on Wednesday, September 13th at 9/8 central. It will also be available on the MAX streamer.
The network description is below…
CSI Alina Burroughs returns to her hometown in Florida to re-investigate a furniture store massacre that claimed four lives on Christmas Eve 1975. Applying new technology to old clues, Alina tries to piece together a puzzle still fraught with mystery. Should Tommy Zeigler, the longest serving Death Row inmate in Florida be set free?
Late last year, a judge ordered DNA testing in the case. On Christmas Eve in 1975 Ziegler’s wife and mother in law were shot dead, while his father in law and a fourth person were beaten to death.
The last true crime documentary to feature an Orlando case was “Where The Truth Lies” featuring the Casey Anthony trial. You can read my write up of that program HERE.
