The jury has reached a verdict: Sophia is found guilty of first-degree murder.
At sentencing, Sophia hears victim impact statements, including one delivered by the woman raising her son.
She is sentenced to 43 years in prison, and just as she’s settling into that fate, she gets a call from her lawyer saying that she’s won the right to a new trial.
