Feeling cornered, Ben hopes to find out the truth himself. Jess Murnane tells him she believes in his innocence and suggests Tommy's killer must be her estranged partner, Iraq war veteran Paul Murnane. His biker ex-military house-mates cover for Paul, but although roughly chased, Ben discovers his motorcycle. Ben's family become outcasts. At Tommy's funeral, Ben discovers that his eldest daughter has an affair with Paul. Police detective Ian Cornielle considers Ben the prime suspect after the murder weapon is identified as a flash light like the one missing from Ben's truck and a surprising DNA test.
