Murder Mma Arrest Emotional Police Fan Hbo Hr Suspect

We’re only three episodes into HBO’s Perry Mason and poor Emily Dodson has already been on one especially nasty emotional rollercoaster. The show opens with Emily and her husband, Matthew (Nate Corddry), losing their infant son, Charlie. Charlie was kidnapped and held for ransom, but even after offering up the money, Emily and Matthew find Charlie dead. In Episode 2, Matthew is taken to the police station for questioning because he’s suspected of having a hand in his son’s kidnapping. However, by the end of the episode the tables turn and the LAPD interrupts Charlie’s funeral to arrest Emily for his murder. That brings us to Episode 3.
