Who woulda thunk it? Two very different guys - ten years apart - used the sub-sub story line of an episode of a TV crime procedural from 2003 and (almost) successfully make it work in real life! Or...er..death... On this episode of JUST THE TIP-STERS Melissa takes a look into the deaths of two men - one from just weeks ago in 2018 in Florida and another from a decade ago in New Mexico, both of which at first glance appeared to be murders But solid detective work and a search of the archives of the television show "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" revealed that both of the deceased men had actually committed suicide based on the plot from the show. Why would they go through all the trouble? The answer is simple and tragic - and in looking at these cases Melissa takes a strong stand on staying alive and embracing life. Funny, fascinating and compelling all at once.
