He walked into court on a cane. He told the judge he'd taken a Tylenol that morning and nothing else — no prescribed pain medication — because he wanted absolute clarity for his testimony. Nobody asked him to do that. He chose it. That moment says everything about how this case got under his skin. This wasn't a paycheck. This wasn't routine. Gabler logged over a year on this case — the phone records, the home search, the interviews, the evidence that ultimately helped put Kouri Richins away for life. And somewhere in that year, the case stopped being work and became something personal. In Part 3, Gabler gets honest with Tony Brueski about what the Kouri Richins investigation did to him. Not the evidence. Not the courtroom. The personal cost — what it's like to reconstruct the life of a dead man you never met, to sit on the wrong side of the courtroom for the first time in your career, and to wonder whether a case like this ever lets you go.
