Oxygen True Crime’s Accident, Suicide or Murder returns with an episode that looks at the blurry line between tragic accident and calculated crime. “Battle of the Experts” centers on the death of a woman found in a whirlpool bath. What initially appears to be a routine self-care ritual gone wrong quickly transforms into a decade-long investigation.

The episode sets out to examine how a seemingly open-and-shut case morphed into a complicated mystery. Over ten years, investigators grapple with conflicting evidence and expert opinions, trying to piece together the truth.

“Battle of the Experts” intends to trace the investigation’s many turns, from the initial discovery of the body to the eventual determination of the cause of death. The episode’s title suggests a clash of opinions among the experts, which will probably be a major focus of the narrative. The extended timeframe of the investigation underscores the difficulty in determining whether this was an accident, a suicide, or a murder.
